You're too late. Still, it may be preferable that the government knows what you've been surfing, rather than the missus.

Or you could threaten to sack the person who has broken the most!

People are generally idiots regarding trees or the risks from them. The car owner would probably deny all knowledge of the tree and didn't understand why the bins were in the road. The tree owner should have contacted the council or highways department to close the road until someone dealt with it, but probably didn't even think to. Overall we work with trees, day in and day out, and have a very different view of things compared to mr and mrs Joe Public.

A good anology. Another is; 'There's more than one way to skin a cat' I just see all these things as a tool in the toolbox, the important thing being the selection of the right tool for the job in hand. I know a few people who think a hammer is the only tool for every job, the bigger the better:biggrin: -

Dysfunction probably only an inch deep, they'd probably outsee us all until someone comes along with a depleted bank balance. Then, it will be lucky that they haven't collapsed and killed someone.

No idea, but I noticed some birch today, bare apart from the very upper reaches of the canopy. This made me think about the auxins to initiate leaf abscission (which I think originate from the roots -probably wrong). So do the distal parts of the canopy get the message later? And could your answer be a disruption/dysfunction of the messaging system caused by decay. Or am I talking a load of bullocks? -
Someone did point out a 25m rope may be a little short for a 90ft tree

That was when labour was probably a lot cheaper. I'm not aware of any research and image it would be difficult to prove which of grinding -leaving,grinding-removing or digging was most beneficial. Too many factors involved.
