Help!idea/link-How much time does the rainforest have?

[yin at cts.com]

My www-page
<www.geocities.com/RainForest/1884>
opens with
a clock. I want to draw attention to the fact
that many
rainforest areas are disappearing
unbelievably rapidly
because of slash & burn and other practices.

Have you an idea?
Perhaps a famous quote, statistic, or link?

tnx,
Brian
