- ghm101, on 12/18/2007, -1/+11Here is a truly ancient thing, a tree arguably 10,000+ years old, this is a tree that spouts a new stem when a limb touches the ground, in this way the same genetically identical organism has continuously existed since before God was supposed to have created the world. - thats pretty clever even for god ;-)

- didgital, on 12/18/2007, -1/+7Characteristically, the oldest trees in the Bristlecone Pine Forest (oldest trees in the world, in Central California) are a guarded secret and are not labeled.
- 3tcp, on 12/18/2007, -1/+6People don't use paper maps anymore
- inactive, on 12/18/2007, -2/+6And, coincidentally, cut down to make paper in order to print NEW maps!
- gr0ss, on 12/18/2007, -0/+3I hope no one tries to cut them down at any point in time, or deface them.
- RxDaniel, on 12/18/2007, -0/+3Or tell everyone where they are so some douche can burn it or carve stupid ***** all over it.
- inactive, on 12/18/2007, -1/+3How did trees learn to use maps? I'm a human and I can't use them.
- inactive, on 12/18/2007, -0/+2I am SO there!
- ChiefShaman, on 12/18/2007, -0/+2I guess we're lucky they're not here in the U.S., where we would make the land a national forest, and the government would trade the land to the lumber companies for lumbered land!
- RxDaniel, on 12/18/2007, -0/+2It took thousands of years, and they still can't fold them back after they are done.
- itchcity, on 12/18/2007, -0/+2The 2700 year old yew tree wow... If trees could talk, man
- inactive, on 12/18/2007, -0/+1Wow! Those are some clever trees.
- inactive, on 12/19/2007, -0/+1Pirates do. I have never seen a pirate searching for buried treasure with a Garmin. Or should I say with a GARRRRRmin.
- 0crabby0, on 12/18/2007, -0/+1Just convert the map to PDF for you Ebook
- jonshipman, on 12/18/2007, -0/+1they where maps of other places - but with drawings of where the forests where. You take a 200 year old map and lay it over a current map and where forests line up - there are your 200 year old + trees.
- Jorin, on 12/18/2007, -0/+1That's rad. If they keep working hard they can probably preserve all the ancient trees in Britain. It's about time we turn the tides and start to respect the planet.
- Rippleeffect, on 12/18/2007, -0/+1Why are they having problems finding the old trees? Aren't they generally the largest and gnarliest trees in the area?
- mal1964, on 12/18/2007, -0/+1Those outdated maps are worth a lot of real dollars not pretend
- gaoshan, on 12/18/2007, -1/+1Amazingly the oldest predate Christianity by several thousand years.
- Jomwilli, on 12/18/2007, -1/+1Why are there 200 year old maps of tree's? What purpose did that serve?
- pjr12345, on 12/19/2007, -0/+0You can hate yourself and your country all you want because many brave men have given their lives to defend your right to speak foolishly.
- pjr12345, on 12/19/2007, -1/+0It would be very cool to cut down a couple of those trees and redo my floors. I'd have them rough-cut into 8 inch planks. I'll bet they'd last hundreds of years!
- LastSight, on 12/18/2007, -2/+1god damn
- cocreator10, on 12/18/2007, -3/+1 The original Christmas trees?
- KloroFormd, on 12/18/2007, -5/+1But what is AT&T supposed to print the iPhone bills on?
