Beware of so-called tree experts who do not understand tree biology.
Storms, fires, floods, earthquakes, and volcanic eruptions keep reminding
us that we are not the boss.

Regardless of what you put in your so called dictionary, you are not, and
cannot, be a forester, consulting or other wise. Saw hand, maybe, but no
forester. Any more than you are a biologist, tree expert, or arborist.

Still, as imaginary states of being go, symptomless's delusion he's a tree
expert and forestry consultant is for the most part harmless. True, bad
advice could really screw up someone's garden, but it's not like a lot of
folks are fooled by him so he can't cause TOO much harm always pretending.


And anyway, have a wee bit of compassion. Imagine how sorry-ass a life has
to be to adhere year in, year out, to the "big fantasy" of being expert in
trees, of wanting to tell everyone you're some sort of great wizard at
something without the wherewithal to actually get the education. If you're
a man of faith the poor phk should be in your prayers.
