the moment one thinks they know it all is the moment they have stopped learning and they have not learned it all, they have just learned all they ever want to learn. Anyone who thinks the natural sciences, to include Arboriculture, is a subject that can be learned to its entirety and then preached is by far ignorant of the field. I have many friends of which some are PHD's and they will testify that one can never know it all and you will never know anything unless you can open your mind to have your knowledge challenged by others.
-as for the use of proper scientific names, i FULLY endorse it, if the proper name is used there can be no argument as to what species is being discussed and honestly, it makes one look professional and I believe that is what we are looking for here isnt it fellow arborists', to bring a high level of professionalism to this field.
