Oh that's absolute bullshit. They cut down the trees because kids were climbing them?!? Kids have been climbing trees for thousands of years, and it's FUN. And seriously, the more they try to protect kids from themselves, the more we raise a generation of incapable, incompetent imbeciles who are afraid to do anything because they might get a bruise or a scratch.

I miss climbing trees. I need to do that more often. I climb the trees out at Camp Gaea sometimes. You should join us!
