If you have never tested your mettle against the powerful and deceptive
Chinese Elm, your education in warfare is sadly lacking. Had you ever
encountered one in your adventures you would understand the reason for
the ceremony I meantioned. Their roots surely reach hell and their
branches are constantly poised to attack the unwary. They spread their
leaves and seed far and wide and their spawn are everywhere.

Underestimate these evil beings at your peril.

Feh. It's just a tree. Some of us would never cut and run when faced
with a mere tree as an opponent. Trees are easy; for one thing, they
don't run from a fight, unlike some "warriors" of central European
extraction.

A Chinese Elm? What's it going to do, lend you money so that you can
buy worthless crap from it that you'll use once and then throw in the
landfill?

Hmm. I believe at one time the English called syphilis (or maybe gonorrhea)
the French disease while the French called it the English disease. That's
right, always blame the other guy.

Close. It was the French and Italians.

Then how do they explain Henry VIII? Unisex jousting?

6 wives, 3 children (not counting the odd *******s).. Doesn't seem to
be much action there.

I suggest that even ONE spawn is proof of some sort of action by a minimum of
two people, negating your stated premise.

Cutting is easy. Running is easy. Arboreal resurrection is something
completely different.

Trees are easy; for one thing, they
don't run from a fight, unlike some "warriors" of central European
extraction.

Why should they bother to run? They win by merely standing still.

I can tell that you have never experienced the horror of battle against the
Chinese Elm. Pray you never do. The bad part is that if they're
well-disciplined they appear harmless and even attractive. Turn your back,
however, and they become something else entirely.

Logic? I'm sorry, this is usenet. Logic does not apply.

You must not have read my earlier post. Chinese Elms laugh in the face of rock
salt.

At one time I actually did attack the brute with an axe. I mean a big one, not
a puny hatchet. I worked on that stump for at least half an hour, shredding it
to roughly 6 inches below the surface. It came back.

Where do you think the guys who made the first zombie movies got their ideas?
It's just that a resurrected tree isn't as visually arresting as a resurrected
human corpse. BTW, has anybody ever seen a lion or tiger or bear zombie?
They'd probably be a lot more effective at eating the brains of the living.

Union organizer: Now look here, we're working on zombie liberation. When I
yell out "WHAT DO YOU WANT?" you yell "EQUAL RIGHTS!" and when I yell "WHEN DO
WE WANT IT?" you yell "NOWWWWWW!" Got that? OK, let's practice: WHAT DO WE WANT?

Zombie: BRAAAAAAAAAINS...

Nobody laughs in the face of rock salt. Why do you think it is used
to kill demons? little girl.

sigh Very well, but I wash my hands of responsibility for your well-being. I
have done my best to warn you of the danger, but if you insist on ignoring my
advice you must bear the consequences.

BTW, my daughter's name is Cassandra. She has similar problems with mortals.

I live a life of action, adventure, and danger. Danger is my middle
name. They call me, "Horvie Danger Horvath." I'm off to battle sea
monsters, win races, ant to free the Indianapolis 500, right after I'm
done golfing.

Skiing is great, though, very few of them come out.

I ever tell you the story of skiing with him at Sundance? The

Hi Scott, haven't been reading RSA for awhile, I see you're still
