The link that is <b>really</b> missing though, is the one to RadioLab's <a href="http://www.radiolab.org/2010/jun/28/" rel="nofollow">"Oops"</a>-episode: many more unfortunate spellchecks, plus a truly tragic story of Bristlecone Pines. Highly recommended! Hi Ed,

thanks for including my little Queen Elizabeth-post.

The link that is really missing though, is the one to RadioLab’s “Oops”-episode: many more unfortunate spellchecks, plus a truly tragic story of Bristlecone Pines. Highly recommended!

But but but BUT ED!!! My crackpot ideas deserve as much face time for how horribly oppressed I am by the scientific community as those luminaries! Why can't everyone just see my genius?! “Note who’s not on the list: You and your crackpot ideas.”

Pretty much copy/paste of the *first* table in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_oldest_trees with a few arbitrary omissions. And a complete neglect of the second table with estimated ages, which happens if nobody wants to drill a core sample or cut the tree down (i.e. outside of North America/Chile). Anyway. Beautifull trees. I like trees :) The Wired article on old trees with the Bristlecone Pine picture is just weird.
