I think calling these people lumberjacks is a bit off, since lumberjacks actually love trees and want to see more of them as well.

- glaugh 14y agoFair point. Any suggestions for a sorta silly label for a group that genuinely doesn't like trees? Went with lumberjacks to avoid saying anything overly disparaging, but it's not great.
- JackFr 14y agoTry the piece using 'these respondents' in stead of 'lumberjacks'. Virtually unreadable and dull.
- josefresco 14y agoFrom the data it looks as though if anything, we should be calling them "negative Nancys".
- pnathan 14y agoYeah, having known a an actual lumberjack growing up, this struck me as really rude and derogatory.
