I just think that if I realized something I cared about so much was being killed by "tradition", I wouldn't keep doing it.
The "tradition" was not killing the trees, the fact that they are surrounded by traffic and concrete had potentially shortened the life expectancy of the trees and the pressure washing also potentially did this. The trees are 130 years old and could have lived another 50 years under the conditions they were exposed to. All that to say, I think your fan bias is causing you to overstate the effect of the pressure washing. JMO.

Maybe you are right... I just was getting my information from this and other related stories.

From 2007

I again have absolutely no patience for someone who did something so malicious and terrible as what that man did. I fully understand the outrage. I have consistently stated my respect for the trees in all of my posts. I did fundraising for the arbor foundation, which probably colors my bias more than anything.
