I meant it as more of a generic comparison of the way population
pressures/colonization works rather than a specific example regarding ecosystems or
slash and burn farming. I'm going to have to plead ignorance when it comes to the
South American rainforest. All I know is what I've seen in the occasional PBS
program, read in the papers, or heard in Sting's lyrics.

My feeling is that the Middle Earth elves were the "chosen of the gods,"
and deserve all the praise in the world. But Cerilian elves are just
faries, elfs that only worry about their own superiority and their own
little version of reality.

No this is not true. You have to wait until next year (Summer). Or so it was
said by TSR reps a month ago, and things can change rapidly however.
