[PCA] Post NY Times moss article

[Center for Sustainable Resources]

The article is erroneous and inflamatory. Moss here covers anything left 
laying in the woods on cove sites within two years. I am glad someone is 
getting some use out of the stuff. Removing it at times is natural 
simulating animal impact we no longer have. It opens the soil and organic 
surfaces up to air and allows other plants to germinate. Fred Hays
