I think that I shall never see a tree as low as Burma Shave....

Loveliest of ads the billboard now,
Is hid by leaf and wretched bough-
No longer brightens my commute-
The trees and seas and King Canute.

sorry - I musta' been channeling George Washington again -I think that you may have more of those smog-monster, terpene-spewing vermin on the East Coast than during the Colonial Era. Well, best wishes anyway to the folks in Florida- if the good yeomen would each cut down er treescore and ten (and maybe fifty more) they could be townsmen of a treeless town-
I know -enough already.
