Ran into my cuz at walmart, he was in the Wii isle, I happened to look down, there it was! A LUMBERJACK GAME!
Didnt even have a Wii, but bought the game anyway, so we bought a Wii, so I could play that game!
Bought my wife the Wii fit plus deal for x-mas, still in the box tho!

Wraptor -- nice toy but you really gotta go up a lot of tall trees to make it pay for itself -- if you have cash to spare and want another device in truck then go for it. On most of the trees in the east, realistically by the time you set it up likely a good climber would be up the tree. Maybe I am wrong here.. Furthermore our trees are not high enough to get tired climbing them for the most part. If you climb all day then can get tiring.. but setting up wraptor in each tree must take some time as well. Gotta see that closer to realistically see benefits.. but can not deny a nice toy.

Yeah, you are wrong. For a climber with good throw-ball skills it is really no different then setting up an SRT rig. I use mine on almost every tree, unless it is too easy to climb vs rope ascent. I was very skeptical too, until Paul let me demo. The first time i went up a 60ft bur oak, I was sold.

Very self important people seek to put "their own" spin on his terms or even re define his terms to appear vaguely even in the same league as him (couldn't be even in the same universe as him in these aspects though).

Sometimes yes, often no. Many people in his league are adapting and growing his terminology as current knowledge expands.

I would say that reaction-wood (r-w)is any group of xylem that is thigm-morphed, resulting in the self optimization that Mattheck talks about.

What we call "wound-wood" around an old wound is R-W.

The bulging that indicates a pocket of decay, and instability is R-W.

The palisade formation in a basal flair is r-w, resultant from the compression-tension load cycling.
 
I'm waiting for the mods to show up, u guys putting flames on them, chrome tail pipe, nitrous kit!
Well, I def am gonna get one dos. Sit back and hit the gas! ARE YA KIDDING ME!
I see wraptor races in the future!

" Here at the NHRWRA (National Hot Rod Wraptor Racing Association) 2015 WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP!
" JPS had lane choice in this round, so TreeVet is waiting to see witch one he gets"
"Whoever wins this round will move into the finals against reigning world champion Greanbean"

I guess with that statement YOU? are in the same league?

My opinion refers to describing and identifying things and processes with RESEARCH behind it.

Again......every cell that initiates in the cambium or other meristem is in reaction to something. You have made no earth shattering statement.

Well if ya don't hear from me in a month you'll know it backfired. I feel if I got him snared live or dead it will get me out of debt at least. I have been in that swamp many times and it is desolate.

be careful rope.....gators and snakes would be more likely to take you out than the big foot I think.

one of my favorite shows of all time...Swamp People...disappeared....you know when that comes back on?
 
Went to investigate some storm damage this morning, nothing that can't wait for better conditions though. Helped deliver a snowblower this afternoon, and went to check out the conditions at the job scheduled for Thursday. Get over there, speak with the client. The lady's neighbor wanted some trees taken out for his garden, spoke with the client, she said to do whatever the guy wanted. Go over there today and speak with her in person, she was only willing to accept pruning and a few small removals... the neighbor wanted clearing, and said the client ok'ed it. She's gonna have a blast with him now... but not my problem.

man, it could've been your problem if you listened to the one that wanted everything removed.

YEP! Greenbean is the nick name, when I was on here before, that was my name, then it was deleted or something, then I had to switch the grean, and that was taken? so I ended up with S(for scott) greanbean!
