- Yep, forests all look the same to me, bunch of trees, lots of leaves and some ticks. Actually i didn't specify state or nat. I know that Nancy is with the nat. forest folks. I don't think I was aware that there was a separate state forest service. I don't know anything about them. I suppose it makes sense that the state would want to get in on the forest action. I also thought that the Huzzah land was the conservation department, and that is a different matter altogether. glenn Jim Bensman wrote: > - > Glenn, you are confusing National Forests with State Forests. > > Nancy is with the US Forest Service which mangers the Mark Twain National > Forest.
