THERE ARE NO MAPLE TREES IN OZ!?!?!!? WHAT KIND OF BARBARIAN COUNTRY DO YOU LIVE IN?!?!?!?!?HOW CAN YOU LIVE WITHOUT MAPLE TREES!?!?!?!?!


Mostly not cold enough. Sugar maples about but their owners
rarely know what to do. No plantations. All alien trees,
especially 150 y.o. specimens on government land (such as Calif.
redwoods which were tried out as possible softwood forestry
trees) are being eliminated by the xenophobic environmental
fascists now in control of EPAs Parks services and similar
departments. I'd flee the country but Lady Kate still can't get
out the Murray Mouth. BTW I was unaware that sugar maples
flourished in (eg) Txas, new Mexico, Florida...
