Has anyone notice, particularly in South Devon, the about of leaves
that are still on the deciduous trees at the moment, with many still
green let alone brown, I can?t help but wonder why?

Could it be due to the exceptional mild spell we had at the beginning
of November, the lack of storms this Autumn, or could they be
retaining their leaves to get the last bit of nutrients from them to
help them through a harsh Winter.


Stan, could you please use a newsreader that correctly quotes the posting
that you are replying to? Anything but MS would be fine.

Also, it would help if "Teignmouth" and others swapped expletive-deleted
Google Groups for a proper newsreader. I'm getting fed up with trying to
decipher who has said what and to whom.


For those using OE, this will cure the quoting issues with Google Groups.
