Again, LH, the natural resting state of wood is to be soil, so you could make a case that trees are 'users' too, as much as people are. Depends if you see yourself as a sheep or as a wolf, as soil or as tree.
How do you like the cheek of those bloody vegetables, using you to carry their babies about! No better than mosquitoes, are they!

Thank you for reading my ramblings, product of a mind that is trying to avoid work.
