Why do people get so upset at obvious jokes. Do you really think someone is gonna wonder over to your front yard and assasinate your tree DIY style? Cause if you meant your "childish remarks" you forgot to put your postal address so that it can be avoided.
Anyway i found it very funny (hilarious tbh) and light hearted. Thanks for all your feedback guys, nice to have a laugh every now and again and cheered up an otherwise dull day. anywayz, wheres that electric chainsaw gone :D -----Original Message-=---- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Dan Fitzpatrick Sent: 02 July 2003 05:26 To: blitz Cc: Patrick Leary; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [BAWUG] A few little trees - wheres my saw gone It's not so much the pissing off the "tree huggers" it's the legality of it. I have a 40-50ft (70+ year old) redwood tree in my front yard that if some one killed I would thoroughly prosecute said person to the fullest extent of the law. Not just for trespassing and destruction of property/vandalism but also for dumping toxic chemicals on my property. If your redneck scheme of cutting the roots just happened to cause the tree to fall I would prosecute for any further lost/damaged property. At some point said person would get the point that it would have been cheeper to get DSL or even ISDN verses the mounting legal fees. And don't think I wouldn't be able to catch this person. It's not like tracing a signal is hard nor is cracking WEP. This is not clever... It's childish. Dan.
