Hackberry is probably my least-favorite tree. If it's HUGE and shading
the garage, it's probably going to at least partially fall on the garage
at some point in time. There's at least one giant hackberry out east of
Webberville that split and both halves came down in that storm Sunday.

If you're really looking for a service, my girlfriend used They Might Be
Monkeys. http://theymightbemonkeys.citysearch.com/ She said they seemed
to know what they were doing, and were very careful, both with the trees
and their persons. They also advert^K^K^K *support* KUT, FWIW.

Me, I gotta get a new chain for the ol' Sears electric chainsaw, and get
after some of my broken elms.
