It was your rather bald assertion that summer grasses provided better sequestration than forests. I simply wanted to say I am not sure everybody would agree with that and it is certainly not agreed upon by all. That was my only point. I do not particularly want to get into a discussion about Dr Jones and summer grasses again. We can if you really wish to, but we have previously traversed this for quite some time.
