ajtj, Testing the DNA of Weyerhaeuser 2x4's is not necessary YET, however ,if you are referring to an exotic high strength wood like Zeev often refers to protect his financial a-- from heavy weight, then you may be correct. Whether a Doug fir or a western hemlock growing on the north vs. the so. side of the border would have different DNA is debatable, it would get darn right difficult to test those straddling the border.

Agreed, but little of durable value from China is sold in Walmart...Notice how incredibly active Japan is involved in intervention to prop up the yen? Defending foreign investors even at the cost of higher energy prices. Now, the China shock from the cutoff of Yukos supplies by train (100,000 bbls/ day)

Asians supply the US with $1.8B/day in funding; I'm not impressed by what we get for these flows
