So we don't have a list Dr. Pollen or Dr. Paly? Didn't the Scots Pine
predominant for awhile as they retreated to the Scottish highlands as
the climate warmed after the last ice age? I'll defer to the resident
experts or Drs. Pollen/Paly or anyone confering with them.
Doesn't Scotland protect what liittle remains of the Caledonian Pine
forest?
