The Planning Team has considered many forest values and interests, some of which are diametrically opposed, and the FMP provides a reasonable balance of responses to those values and interests. It is agreed that the FMP should result in sustainability of the forest ecosystems, although not necessarily with the make-up predicted by the models. There are reservations concerning the credibility of the outputs of the models due to much of the starting condition Forest Resource Inventory (FRI) having been derived from 1989 aerial photography and limited understanding, by the LCC, of how well the models reflect the complexity of the forest in a changing climate. It is understood that the models are continually being improved and future Forest Management Plans will strive to correct past deviations from the desired outcomes.

But take a fresh look! This classic picture is not quite right! Betelgeuse, Orion's "left" shoulder, is usually quite a bit brighter than Bellatrix, the "right" shoulder star. The Red Giant at the left shoulder is a variable star, as our eyes can easily verify over time, but normal it is always brighter than Pollux, in nearby Gemini, and sometimes it is nearly as bright as Rigel. But now the two shoulder stars appear at a glance to be equally dim.
