Expert Usenet advice indicates that sci.environment.community.trees
cannot pass for 2 reasons. 1st, it requires adding on 2 fields instead
of only one, leaving 'sci.environment.community' as a pointer to
an object which does not exist. This could be tweaked sci.environment.
community-trees, but that fails for reason #2 which is that the term
'community' is controversial for some reason and is being debated
under rec.pets.cats.community (I don't make this stuff up). Beverly,
could you support 'sci.environment.forests' -- expressly inclusive
of community forests, backyard forests, old-growth etc ?
