I watched part of the Senate Judiciary hearings with Lehey, Kennedy, Schumer, Boxer, Biden and Spector. I am starting to agree with the "tree-huggers". My crab grass is smarter than that group and has more moral integrity.

Now there, you got me. Even a weed has more sense than that group you enumerated.

I have never met a redwood tree I didn't like.

Hmmmmm. Nah. I never once had the urge to hug a tree.

I have. Strap on a pair of spikes, a belt and start climbing. Limb it on the way up. When you get to a diameter of about 6 inches, cut a wedge out and start your back cut. Leave an inch. Hook the saw, grab your hatchet and start prying. Assuming you started with a 36 inch tree, you're probably way over 100 ft. in the air. When the top goes, it doesn't just fall over. It pushes the thing you're connected to WAY over. You will hug that tree.It's an "E ticket" ride. Ask Carry_Okie.
