Ok, it's not really an emergency but it's driving me nuts. I know there is a term for the method of pulling logs up an inclined plane (ramp) using ropes. I CAN'T REMEMBER IT. It's driving me bonkers. I believe I saw it here on Permies.com but can't find it, and I googled it and found thousands of references to the technique but didn't find the term. I am a long time reader but have never posted before. I absolutely love this site and the people here. So, I guess I'm no longer a lurker. "Hello my name is David, and I'm a Permie"
