Subject: [Aztrees] About.com's Forestry Site

Hello,

I was browsing the Web and came across your site and thought you might be
interested in checking out About.com's forestry site
(http://forestry.about.com/). About.com is the #1 News and Information Web
site according to research firm Media Metrix.

What can you expect to find there? Here are some highlights:

	- A database of North America's Top 100 Trees, with stats, images,
and links

	- A database of North America's 50 Major Tree Pests and Diseases

	- A database of North America's Forest Types, with images and cover
maps

	- A directory of National and State Forests

	- A directory of American Forestry Schools and Universities

	- Carefully selected Net links covering over 40 topics

	- Over 50 articles on everything from chainsaws to drought to ethics

	- Active bulletin boards and chat rooms

Perhaps the best thing about the About.com Forestry site is its attention to
detail. Your Guide, forester Steve Nix, has meticulously sifted through the
Web to bring you only the best online forestry resources. He has also
contributed his own expertise and research on the subject.

I'd like to invite you over to look around; the URL is
http://forestry.about.com. We welcome your feedback, and if you find our
site of use, please pass this note on to your colleagues and consider
