WiFi vs Trees?

A preliminary study gaining fame on the internet seems to suggest a relationship between wifi signals and tree illnesses in an urban area in the Netherlands, the Wall Street Journal reports.  The fellow conducting the "preliminary experiment", Dr. van Lammeren says, "we cannot draw conclusions."

Think that'll stop anyone?

I would like to advance another hypothesis for tree death in the Netherlands.  It's the Muslims.  Look at all the Muslim countries around the world.  What do you see?  Treeless mountains and desert.  I'm telling you, plants are allergic to Muslims!

We'll see how much traction that one gets!

Lincoln the Prophet

"At what point then is the approach of danger to be expected? I answer, if it ever reach us, it must spring up amongst us. It cannot come from abroad. If destruction be our lot, we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of freemen, we must live through all time, or die by suicide."  -- President ABRAHAM LINCOLN, address before the Young Men’s Lyceum, Springfield, Illinois, January 27, 1838.

As a nation today, I visualize us as standing with one foot in the grave and the other on a banana peel.
