Most grow naturally, ring after ring being added down through the generations. A son or daughter marries and new branches are formed to start their own little tree which will over time become their root tree. Other branches of the big family tree will continue growth until one branch comes to a dead end. Sometimes though trees grow by graphing in new sprouts, which help the big tree grow in new and different ways adding a new flavor to the bigger tree. My what's it all about, is just this latter case. http://home.highertech.net/~tstowell/tian.htm ------------------------------------------------------via webmail---- Tim Stowell tstowell@chattanooga.net "Tim Stowell" <tstowell@chattanooga.net> 2008-03-20T05:13:14-06:00
