intro

[scott t]

First, off i would like to say hello. I am new to the forums but not to trees. I am a owner/operator from Indiana. I run a all climbing tree service and i do all the climbing.This place is great i feel at home here. all the tree people here are not very educated about trees and i can not stand to talk to them.

.......or environmental issues to a republican!


Welcome to the site and jump in wherever you want, just be aware that there are sharks in the political forum.

And some of the jokes will kill ya.

Welcome, Scott! This is the best forum on the internet for tree guys. Watch out for trolls. If you see someone who has posted thousands and thousands of posts on here in a year's time, it's a good bet that the poster is not a working tree guy but, rather, someone who simply likes to see his own ramblings on here, however inaccurate they may be.. That being said, some disabled/retired guys on here were great tree men, in their time, and still have good ideas and info to impart in their many posts. The trick is to differentiate between the two, as above. Again, welcome.

or environmental issues to a republican.

Welcome...fellow Hoosier!

I feel the same way sometimes about talking with other local tree guys...some get it and some don't.

Where in Indiana?

Send me a pm and we can chat about the Hoosier state.

Start a thread "Hoosiers kvetching about the industry" I can understand it, I've been to a few towns and driven through on the I system. Never seen so many topped trees before. But then southern WI has always been ahead of the curve

Yes topping is a big thing here. If it makes you feel better I don't top trees i send them down the raod. I try to get them to thin/cable/.Topping is the worst thing. It makes them look like crap.I dont care what the job pays.

Well, bee-itching is not allowed on the site.

I've been a shabatt goyim on a few occasions, I think anyone who works in yards has. The oddest "My wife left the lights on yesterday, could you turn them off?" as he is standing next to she switch.
