gee if everyone would just click on the link that TimR provided in the posting they would get taken directly to KERA’s website where they could view a portion of the ‘Million Dollar Monarch’ film or you can click here

Grant, Sorry about that. I grew up withing walking distance of that tree and responded from the heart less than with an editor’s eye to former posts. Sorry. It was a well intentioned ommission.

I heard there was a lovely documentary on PBS, produced by KERA I believe, about this tree.

You really should have mentioned the documentary. If you could not reference it by linking with 3 of the first 4 words of the post then at the very least I would think that 4 of the first 6 comments should have mentioned it.
