A question has been posed for quite some time. If a tree falls in the
wilderness and nobody is there, wil lit make a sound?
I have heard all sorts of answers over the years. The one thing I have
never heard in all these debates is, wha tis is a tree?
Mirriam-Webster defines a tree as
a. a woody perennial plant having a single usually elongate main stem
generally with few or no branches on its lower part
http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/tree

This is fairly simple, concise and accepted definition.
The defintion for a tree is accepted globally, in both the private and
public sectors.

So the next question is, if a record falls in the wilderness, what is a
record?


The definiton for a tree is twenty-one words, let's see if we can limit our
definition for a record to twenty-five.
