I certainly hope the "tree topping beetle" doesn't migrate to Greensburg on the vehicle of an unsuspecting motorist traveling from Columbia for the festivities today.

It would be a shame if an infestation should be a catalyst to the maiming, mutilating, and scuppering of their beautiful urban forest the way it has here in Columbia. I've traveled all over and our urban forest seems to be more vulnerable than any other community.

That ol' TTB is surely a sly casuistry who apparently attacks the center of reasoning of some humans much the same as the as Trichinella spiralis attacks the nervous systems of raw meat eaters. - Billy Joe Fudge
