Fungi- Ally or enemy?

[scotspine1]

its funny, ive had this book for a long time, skipping much about it, put off any depth of reading due to the nature of modern arboriculture, this book feels different, intermission P338 was a good little read, although no revelation to me, I am not driven by the same thought proscesses or view with the same eyes as many:001_smile:

 

I like to offer alternatives

 

I'll stick to Shigo thanks

I'll stick to Shigo thanks

 

The result of idolatry is almost inevitable disappointment.

I'll stick to Shigo thanks

 

and why not...

 

besides the more of you that "stick" with convention the further ahead of you all i will get!

you do a nice line in moral piety Tony but your off target this time. Shigo, Londsdale, Mattheck, Strouts and Winter to name a few wrote some interesting books that help me with the job. There'll no doubt be more books in the future that'll do the same.

 

To infer I idolise Shigo cause I find his books relevant to my work in comparison to Hama's half baked theories shows very poor judgement on your behalf or at the very least a minimal grasp of reality.

Deftly returned sir. I think you'll find my capricous judgement to be better than my mask of piety!

 

You and Tony share the dubious honour of both being in the small group arbtalk members who I don't feel the need to pull my punches with. You both have veritable hides.

I could so get a ban for replying to you:thumbup:
