[at-l] "Special" AT trees...

[Walt Daniels]

 Maybe the north is different but I see many such trees, frequently under 6
inches, so clearly not very old and unlikely to be caused by Native
Americans.

That's very interesting. I've seen many trees like that along trails and
noted it in my notes, but didn't know why they were bent so oddly ...
typically pines but sometimes cypresses. Nice to know there is a story
behind it! I have an opportunity next month to take a hike with a Seminole
herbalist down on the Big Cypress Reservation and will make a point of
asking about the trees.

Debbie Gilbert writes some interesting newspaper articles.  Here's one,
