There is such thing as an internet search.
Umm..... wouldn't that be CHEATING?
not if you can't work out the answer.
HELLO!! HOW WOULD ANYONE REALLY KNOW THIS THING?? CAN ANYONE EXPLAIN? EVERYONE I ASKED DON'T AND SOME EVEN HAD NO IDEA WHAT I WAS TALKING ABOUT.
HOW DO YOU EXPECT PEOPLE TO KNOW THESE STUPID THINGS?!

Yes and everyone you asked did not know anything about Christmas or anything about nursery rhymes either. Maybe you just need to know some more people, real ones, not the imaginary type.
Username, my dad would probably know, considering the fact that he is a forester.
mad-ade...come on. i'm not a little kid talking about imaginary people. i'm not talking about that. don't you understand properly??
perhaps you could start by explaining properly then!
I liked this teaser but it's not technically correct. I followed Mad-Ade's suggestion to look up trees on the internet. Check out this link: http://www.faculty.ncwc.edu/ekosal/arboretum/loblolly_pine.htm
most people i know don't even celebrate, much less use real trees. a lot of them know little english or none and they are not interested in knowing western stuff in that deep. you know, i even asked my father...he doesn't know. and he's lived all his childhood and until his 40s in the usa...never bought a real tree. i was born in the usa too and i never knew that people really use real trees. (well i was 9 and under then, but think about my father). oh, and by the way, everyone i know of who has/had a tree all had fake ones. and our housekeeper, she's from indonesia and hardly speaks any english at all, knows some cantonese to get by (more than me). she doesn't even know what christmas is, much less how people really celebrate. and a lot of our family, my uncles, aunts, cousins, etc...don't have trees and hardly celebrate...and many only think of christmas as a it's time to give people gifts...and that's it. and not even wrapped up. they don't know about trees.
username, forgive me. I had no idea you would get so upset.
I guess you now know about stupid trees, too
upset at you, mosoh? no way. i wasn't even talking to you. i'm not completely upset, but a little upset at Mad-Ade for telling me I have imaginary people, like a little kid would do. I just think he needs to understand more about other people.
The trouble with you though username, is that if you come across a teaser you don't understand, you automatically say it is stupid. Most sensible people would welcome lerning new facts and ideas.

and the trouble with me is that my PC triple posts
I have learnt a new fact today. Mr Ix's Computer triple posts, but i don't undersatnd it, so it must be stupid. so there....
Many funny comments around here... Oh poor mosoh, don't worry, it's a great teaser! You heep up the good work and don't let us crazy people intimidate you!
OK now I kinda feel weird because I now realize I know too much about Christman trees. It is a family tradition for us to do the whole "cutting down the tree" thing. I rather enjoy it. and this was a good teaser!
