Or maybe it's because the most common clamidia carrier in the country often results in pictures like this: https://photos.travelblog.org/...

Last I checked, trees earmarked for that purpose were specifically grown for that purpose, and aren't wild trees (thus when they're harvested, they don't count as a lost tree anymore than eating a potato counts as a lost potato.)

Namely, these kinds of farm raised trees:

Those kind of trees are even preferred over wild trees because their growth pattern is much better suited to their end purpose.

And they would get a belt too. A very tight golden one with a big lock.

Field trials have already begun:

Not to interrupt with facts, but I read in the Guardian that the tribes apparently went upland well prior to the tsunami, during a time of year they would have normally been on the coasts.

Alas, I can't find a handy link for that story, but there are stories about the Sentinelese, Shompen, and the more western-integrated Nicobari - that last who didn't fare so well.

I do see a travel journal (not the most reliable of sources, I fear) that indicates the Sentinelese went upland immediately after the earthquake. No ESP involved, but some amount of sensitivity and prudence.

"And both the Iyatollahs and the Shah loyalists and just about everybody but the women in Iran have all the cash that could be needed."

So I guess $67 million in cash reserves translates (given the exchange rate of $0 Palmyra Atoll Dollars per $1 US Dollar) to $0 in real money! Congratulations.
