Erica Betts must be feeling a total prat right now eh? If he’s been bothered to read the news lately…which I doubt. If he had anything intelligent to suggest to the investors, I suppose he’d put it up here, but he hadn’t last time I looked.
Sadly for everyone involved in these MIS schemes, apparently the cleverest company involved is Gunns…what does that say? Of course Gunns’ core business appears to be acquiring government subsidies, so I wonder what a massive drop in government revenue means for them.
HOW many people warned that the MIS companies were headed for disaster, along with their investors?
Bill Heffernan has been a bit of a sod on many issues, but on this he was grumpily correct. Erica Betts must be feeling a total prat right now eh?

Of course Erica’s the bloke who said:
“And no, Senator Brown, forests are not harvested for woodchips. Forests are harvested for sawlogs and specialty timbers, such as for furniture. Rather than being wasted, the residue from this process is turned into woodchips to make paper, or burnt to create carbon-neutral energy. You simply cannot make square boards from round trees without some leftover.”
(Diagram explaining Erica’s “understanding” of the Tasmanian forest economy is here.)
