The "disaster" was foreseen and you chose to do nothing.



Dorkus Maximus has spoken!

Pruning trees in KY is much more expensive than pruning palm trees in
Los Angeles. Even with tax increases state and municipal gov't are
facing billions in cutbacks due to the worsening economy. Forgive us
if we put more emphasis on saving our school system than in pruning
trees.

Armchair quarterbacks always have the answer.

Having been thru several up here in MN, Dave is indeed talking out of his
behind.


Sure, sure. Are you saying trees are not the #1 cause of power failures?


In a ice storm, yes. Is trimming trees easy, ahh, no. I used to trim trees
for a living.
