Well, that certainly doesn't tell me much about anything. Sure some people have planted trees but we are not talking about miniture or bonzai Maples which some people in Townhouses have in their miniature yards we are talking about more trees than were available or existed in "the 1920s". Your anecdotal evidence while interesting hardly proves or even supports this wild claim. From what I see around me where I live, the number of old growth has disappeared so dramatically that if I think about it too long or deeply I will cry. In the late 60s when I returned from Vietnam, I could drive 20 miles, walk up into the woods for about a mile and touch trees so big that four or five of us holding hands couldn't get our arms completely around them. Now in spite of all the work of environmentalists, the only trees that big are in one small corner of the National Park. And what is left in trees that were planted at the turn of the Century and those are no longer nearly that big, in fact it is the actual lack of trees that big some of which were as old as two to four hundred years together with the exclusion or tariffs on Canadian timber that is driving up the price of lumber nation wide.
