...first her battles were simply about preserving the forest, often from the Forest Service itself. It took 10 years of campaigning by Pilchuk, for instance, to get the big agency to back off plans to replace a modest gravel road in an old-growth forest with a broad, paved highway. Although there is no "Endangered Habitat Act," Phillips and other environmentalists were able, sometimes, to wrap the Endangered Species Act around old-growth forests. Two endangered birds, the spotted owl and the marbled murrelet, nest in the moss-grown upper limbs of the ancient trees. Phillips is awed...

...Kids Are Right" will unfortunately be the group's first single. It is unfortunate because Lucas tries to put a little to much gravel in his sliding voice. The result is a sound like Billie Joe from Green Day trying to sing a Wallflowers' song in a scratchy voice. The track gets better as soon as the chorus takes effect, but ultimately, "All The Kids Are Right" doesn't stand out like the rest of the album does. The song has the potential to be three-day hit, but eventually it will fade into overplay-rock obscurity...
