I think if there were any british people here, they would be pretty disappointed when they clicked on this thread!!!

Cool links, guy! I was just at a Gilman talk maybe 3 weeks ago. We were out in the parking lot checking out some trees. At one point, Ed says, "where should we go now." One of the other people in the talk said, "we'll follow you anywhere."

It was at that point my suspicion of the similarities between Ed Gilman and important religious figures throughout history were confirmed. Ed is like the pruning buddha!

I'm definitely a follower. I'll check out the pubs (publications!) that I haven't seen yet. Thanks for sharing.

love

Must be good, I skimmed through the mature tree care one and it hardly raised my blood pressure at all.
