Medieval barbarians
To the Editor:
In the “The Talk” section of the Nov. 2 edition of the Chicago Tribune, the short article “Sprucing up for the holidays” shows a picture of a crane lifting a freshly sawed-off 63-year-old, 64-foot-tall spruce tree.
Are we still such a hoard of medieval barbarians running around half-naked who find it fun and necessary to kill a healthy and beautiful tree to celebrate an important, family-oriented religious holiday? Really?
