Tasks / The Lone White Pine
Quoth Wikipedia:
"During the age of sail, the tall trees with their high quality wood were valued for masts, and many trees were marked in colonial times with the broad arrow, reserving them for the British Royal Navy. An unusual large, lone, white pine was found in colonial times, in coastal South Carolina along the Black River (far south of its normal range), and the king's mark was put upon this particular tree, giving rise to the town of Kingstree."
Mark a unique and valuable resource as "reserved" for the government or organization of your choice, using whatever means you deem appropriate.

Wow I had no idea that the white pine had so much symbolism for the white pine, I just thought it was a cool idea to plant a single pine tree some where.
Daemon, you once again prove that your *inx processes are wiser then a Kyle Hamilton after a 7am math class
I tell you what Kyle. I will go ahead and plant a lone pine tree as soon as I'm not broke (haven't worked in 3 weeks).....But the TL can always use some love so... I really don't mind.
I notice lately that I stutter and pause when I speak. And also when I write.
Yes… but kyle… once again you prove to be the daemons muse
Originally: Plant a Lone White Pine, make a yearly pillgramage to this tree to ensure that it is still planted. You should make a plaque that discribes this as "The Lone White Pine of *CITY NAME*"
Better? Worse?
