what a neat link. my dad tried for years to get a bristlecone pine seed/sapling etc (however they propogate) so he could try and get it to grow. (in our yard no less...he was crazy that way) he could barely get anyone at the forrest service to talk to him about such an undertaking. he finally contacted someone at a city planners office and was told why (or at least given enough good reason to make him stop). they aparrently dont want people planting things known to live 3000 years within the city limits.

go figure

great stuff, thank you.
