So how many are there in Oregon alone?
I ax because the GOP Primary election is today and my opening comment on my FB page article was:
Oregon: Where there are more trees than people! LOL!

Thanks for bumping this thread! If I remember correctly, my son turned in a number well north of the 1.2 billion I originally discussed. However there turned out to be no right answer as one cannot possibly know the number of trees in the United States to any degree of precision. The teacher was more interested in the methodology that the students used to come up with their best answer.
My son just graduated college this past weekend so I'm thinking this little exercise nearly a decade ago helped to make him smarter.
