D3Rutat,

I don't see the point in continuing. You're giving bad advice and stating false facts. When called on them, you redefine words and claim that you knew all along. Worse yet, you draw irrelevent analogies that frankly make no sense whatsoever - finger-pruning is not a regular part of human maintenance!

In a span of 13 minutes you somehow managed to type both

I am naming a root pruned tree an unhealthy tree

and

I know that a root pruned is not a true unhealthy tree

Bonsaitalk isn't just some word game for aspiring sophists (despite what can at times appear to be strong evidence to the contrary!) People actually read these posts and maybe even take your advice on occasion. Does it occur to you that this sort of behavior perhaps does a disservice to those who don't know any better than to disregard your posts?

-Carl
