    I think trees, especially oaks and yews, can have bad centuries like we have a bad week, what decay in the base? that was surface and pretty superficial, and I will state despite knowing youll poss have a picus/resistagraph to back up the judgment in this? not digging you matt, just the process applied here to the reasoning, which is flawed IMO.

    the question is, how to you wake up the sheeple without being a "NUTTER":001_smile: I sometimes think these corps must push and push to see just how asleep they are!

    or work with a horse logger and preserve the soil a bit, then replant the site with some mixed native broadleaf! biomass is a massive market now and pop is pretty worthless otherwise. congrats on the good turn of fate, when you submit to it all and let go nature has a way of helping you find what you need:001_cool:

    indeed, and it does at times become a little too heavy hence my at times and often distraught state as I learn the depths to which we sink with such things. Vandana shiva has scientifically proven that organic, bio diverse farming methods out yield GM and mono-cultures. the global food crisis will result because of the likes of the big corps and their blatant disregard for natural systems, not because of any real dangers, they will probably manufacture the problems and come forth with the solutions, like with this Bee thing.

    the tree or the fungus, the idents are correct, both probably to me suggestive that psuedomona (Horse chestnut bleeding canker) has been and done some serious damage

    I am having a tough time believing that man has achieved anything good when we kill for oil and rape the environment, kind of outwieghs any positive effects of our existence IMO
