The ultimate basement

Oh. Did you build a stall around the drain? lol

Actually the woods are right outside the door, and I do own the lot next door that's down slope from my house. Hope there aren't any tree huggers reading this !

Why? Are you trying to kill trees by peeing on them?

If so, my guess is the trees are ahead on poiints.

Around here, the trees grow like weeds. I read once that a New England forest is virtually indestructible, that the best you can do with it is have a standoff. Judging from the looks of the land around me, it was pretty much clear-cut 25 or so years ago. It's recovering quite nicely.

No, I'm not trying to kill my beloved trees - Its just that i spent twenty years in California, and can expect only wacky behavior from righteous 'tree huggers'. One doesn't have to be a tree hugger to protect trees and to respect a forest - which won't always reclaim itself - just look at the devastation from acid rain in the Smokey Mountains and the Adirondacks, as an example. Being a woodworker, I have an extra special respect for this limited, but renewable resource.

And, I think that the turn this discussion has taken is getting far afield of the original topic, so enough about peeing on trees and down drain holes. Agreed?

I agree. It's time to "flush" this tangent and get back to the original discussion.
