lol, I was thinking the same. It was intentional, until it wasn't.

I miss the age of Steam. Those trains were beautiful. But don't be fooled by this new-age jabberwocky. Even nuclear power plants run on steam. Steam. Boil water. With nuclear rods of uranium 286 or the tree you chopped down in your back yard. It's all the same. Well... you can grow another tree. Those rods of uranium cost lives.

Lumberjacking is extremely dangerous.

I think it’s gotten a lot safer with the modern equipment. The main hazard seems to be on the public road. A friend of mine got impaled by a log that shifted in transit. He was in a cab over engine truck passing it on a two lane bridge. Emergency services used a chainsaw and delivered him to the hospital still in possession of his new piece of firewood. Cool scars.

It has become safer, but it's all relative.
