Leila: Hello, I am a weekly episode. I mean, I am we are. I
am Leila Hello. Who is here?
David: Remember we used to unbelievers, Dad
Leila: Oh my goodness. We're a weekly podcast we talk about
stuff.
David: Mainly stuff though.
Leila: Yeah, we talk a lot about stuff.
David: We things we say facts about it and it's
Leila: really fun. It's a grand old time. Okay time,
David: things and stuff.
Leila: Thanks and stuff.
David: So this week episode spreads by this week's episode
sponsor, and they paid for the entire episode for us to talk
all about this one thing the entire episode. Our episode
sponsor this week is tree trees. They're everywhere they
Leila: keep the air oxygen.
David: They keep they keep making it oxygen for
Leila: making oxygen out of that carbon dioxide that's like that.
And then like we do,
David: like and then and then we made a whole house out of them.
Leila: That didn't happen. Well, there's
David: some bricks too.
Leila: But you know, the old the old brick and yeah,
David: brick and mortar wrapped around a skeleton of of tree
Leila: tree. Yeah. That's what they called me in high school.
David: skeleton of tree. Yeah.
Leila: Yeah, well, yeah, that squeaky chair out here.
David: Because it's way more comfortable than the one I
already had out here. So yeah, Fun Fact Friday. Hit us up male
FunFactFriday.com You can find us on Twitter. Fun Fact. Friday
one is our name on there. And we are on Mastodon at Fun Fact
Friday at social media. media.com@gmail.no. Org. No, no
social, social media. Social no.com You're confusing.
Literally everybody right now.
Leila: I know. It's already
David: so we got some correspondence from Team Omaha.
And basically was just letting us know that they have stolen
our little thing from the cheese episode with people in Wisconsin
need to calm down. Feel free we we say that about everything and
apparently now everyone else sort of Team Omaha. We said
about the smallest things like the the refrigerator will be
like it'll drop some ice from the icemaker down into the
icemaker receptacle there, or not the receptacle, the the bin
inside. And no, make a big ol loud call, you know, ice noise.
And I'll be like ice maker needs to calm down. So we say it for
everything. It's, you know, it gets old. But then you wait a
little while and then bring it back. And it's funnier because
it's a throwback. And throwbacks are always fun. But yes, we love
getting correspondence. Shoot us an email. There's there's a, we
love getting them. And if we don't respond to them in email,
we'll talk about it on the show. If you don't want us talking
about something on the show, let us know in the email. So we got
we got some support from a listener, one of our monthly
sustaining donors, Curtis with a $5 monthly sustaining donation,
which pays for the part of the monthly fee on one of our
servers. Thank you so much for that. Thanks, Curtis. Yes, and
we had a good time with blueberry. I wish we had more
time with him last week. But we we and he had a hard heart out.
We had to get out of here. So had some stuff to do last week.
So we have a lot of stuff to do this week. Do we do we got the
convention convention next week? We're gonna get geared up for
that.
Leila: And I think nine days.
David: Yeah, you gotta finish. You gotta get your wigs wigs
already
Leila: in multiple wigs ready? And my website?
David: Gotta get the website up and go. Yeah, why don't you tell
them about the
Leila: website? I'm gonna be making
David: stuff. You're gonna be like, cookies. Why not? Now,
because then you'd have to like, deal with them and they'd be all
broken. I think there's like, laws about selling food. You
have to like, be careful with that.
Leila: Yeah, I gotta get an FDA or whatever.
David: I could sell a spice mix. I don't think you have to do the
FDA. There
Leila: was a girl that started selling stuff without FDA, but
we're not gonna
David: talk with was that the pink stuff? Yeah. Pink. Oh, no.
Yeah, look into that. It's interesting. It's not,
Leila: it's not really,
David: it's not an appropriate appropriate. It's just not our
thing.
Leila: Not our thing. We're not like gossipy. Except we
basically will do a bunch of gossip. But go look it up on
your own time. We're not here to talk about that. We're here to
talk about trees. Yes. So we didn't get paid by trees by the
way. That was just a bit.
David: Yes. Trees. I mean, they used to, they used to make
money. They used to make
Leila: money. People grow on trees at one point right now
it's fair. It's plastic. Yeah, everything which is honestly
better. All right, okay. Non truth anyways, trees are longest
living organisms on Earth and never die of old age.
David: No, no, they die from getting cut down or disease.
Those aren't really fun facts but talking about, we were
talking about what we want to do this week. And we were like, oh,
let's do trees. And we're like, I don't know if we'll find
enough about tree. Oh my gosh, I found so much about trees. And
then on daily dose of internet today, there was a tree, a tree
fact. And we're like, Oh, we got to do it. We got to do this
trees. There's a website relief paper. And this company makes
paper without cutting down trees they use which I love. Yeah,
it's awesome. They use the dead leaves that just naturally fall.
And it's better for for the trees. You know, it's just like
the leaves already there. Why not use them for paper instead
of a tree? You know? So it's pretty cool. I like it. Link
will be in the show notes for that. So we're like that kind of
just confirmed we need to do trees. So we started looking for
facts for trees and oh my goodness. I found some tree
facts.
Leila: I'm talking about redwoods later. Yeah, because
right but they're really interesting. So
David: there's lots of types of trees. Oh, that's a lot. So I'm
just just let let me do this. Let me do this. How many trees
are there? There on this list? There's 50 types of trees. There
is there is but some of them are bolt together. Yeah. And yeah, I
mean you've got like Ash Trees aspen trees base wood Beech
birch. All types of birch you got cherry trees get black
cherry pick cherry get the chestnut yet Cottonwood,
cucumber tree get American Elm slippery elm. balsam fir,
Hawthorne, Eastern hemlock. You got your pitch pine red pine,
your eastern red cedar your SassaFrass yours? Shad busher
red spruce. Your white spruce. Your Sycamore your tulip tree or
scarlet oak. Your black oak, chestnut oak, your white oak,
your Eastern White Pine. You got your your honey locust. You got
your black locust just to hold on to trees. John jump jumped
around a bit. Yeah, I could tell I was trying to read with you.
She was following along. But then I jumped down. What are you
doing? I got a list of the 50 trees I was just reading off of
I didn't read all of them. But
Leila: you're like when the packets at school. One of them
you have like nine questions. And one of them goes in columns.
And one of them goes in rows with the numbering. But like you
have a passage to go along with it. And the questions are in
chronological order. So you try and read with the questions, but
they don't make sense because you're reading them wrong.
David: Yeah, cuz question three has something to do with
question two. Pretty much. Yeah. Yeah.
Leila: You read question one and then question three.
David: Yeah, because it's just not right. That's yeah. So do
you want to jump into your I? What were you said? You said you
were gonna do the escalator. Oh, okay. So I'm, I got down a
rabbit hole of the most dangerous trees. That girl
doesn't look like she's dangerous. Yes, the website 8
billion trees.com.
Leila: Here's a woman on little illustration that looks very
David: dangerous trees and police tape around a tree and
she looks like she's like running away and sheer terror,
which I gotta say. Some of the trees that I'm about to talk
about are pretty terrifying. And I'm not sure whatever you're
doing, oh my God. It's not like air leaking out of a basketball
or something. So some of the the trees that I found that are
considered the most dangerous, some of them are just like if
you eat the leaves or anything, you're the most poisonous. So
I'm not really going to go into those but some of them have
really interesting things going on. Like the Manchin mentioned
Neal tree, Florida. It's one of the most dangerous trees. It's a
rare tropical plant that grows in the sandy soils of North
northern South America and the Caribbean. It's ranked as the
most dangerous tree in the world by the Guinness Book of World
Records. 11 Okay, so the Caribbean Caribbean thing.
Leila: Okay, wait. I'm waiting Pirates of the Caribbean. The
Caribbean islands, two different things.
David: Royal Caribbean, Royal Caribbean, Pirates of the
Caribbean Pirates of the Caribbean. It's
Leila: not Pirates of the Caribbean. That's a movie.
Right? But alright, so the Caribbean,
David: this sentence is none of those things. So I had to kind
of just go with what felt right.
Leila: Caribbean anywho and
David: they're apart. Basically, they have this milky sap that
secretes from Every part of the tree, the bark, the leaves, the
branches, the fruit, everything. And when it comes in contact
with the human body, it can cause extreme pain blisters, it
can eat away your skin. It can actually even kill you. That was
like tree them. It's like yeah, it's like, in the old sci fi
movies when you can name three venom. Yeah. I imagined the
Venom symbiote like that from the Spider Man comics, like on a
tree? And would just, it couldn't attack anybody because
it's just yeah. Or you know,
Leila: just that tree. It's just a picture of that tree.
David: Right. But yeah, so the, even if you burn the tree, the
smoke produced when you burn it can cause blindness, skin
irritation and other problems. So I'm just gonna say this. The
Manson yield tree needs to calm down. Right. See? Throwback? No,
no good. Was that right? Was that a dad joke? Yeah. All
right. So
Leila: trees are able to communicate and defend
themselves against attacking inside.
David: Yeah, I've heard that too. It wasn't there a movie
about that? The happening? What? Mm hmm. Milan. M Night Shyamalan
made a movie called The happening where all the plants
fought back. Because they were all No kidding.
Leila: Yeah, maybe? Yeah. I watched a review on that. I
didn't watch the movie. It's not a good. I know, the review. I
saw what I needed to see. Isn't the review. I think I got a good
David: idea. Yeah, there's worst
Leila: look like a very great movie. But the they scientists
have found that trees can flood their leaves with chemical
called Fen Fen phenolics. With the pH when the insects begin
their raid, they can also signal danger to other trees so they
can start their own defense. willow trees, for example, emit
certain certain chemicals when they're attacked by webworms.
Other willows produce more tannin, making their lives
harder for the past to digest. Ah, that's pretty cool. I need
to start producing tannin
David: get on it. So in this defense, there is there's all
this what the defense that the trees put up. Like you're
talking about? Oh,
Leila: I could just say yes. Like
David: you were literally just talking about
Leila: really going off of what you've already said. No, what's
David: crazy, is that the defense of some of these is
actually also how they spread their their seeds around. Like
there's this one called the sandbox tree. And it's the
entire trunk of the tree is covered in these spikes that are
like an inch long, right. And then they have these large pods
on them. Not the inch long spikes, but the tree also has
this large pot. It's like the fruit of the tree and it's got
all the seeds in it. Right? Once the seed or once the fruit
becomes ripe, it literally explodes. Firing it's cool
firing the seeds at high speed. So it's a grenade tree. It's a
grenade tree. It's called the sandbox tree. It's very
interesting. My gosh.
Leila: I'm gonna Oh my gosh, I love I love my favorite tree.
David: It's it's a little crazy. I'd like it. I don't understand
why I've never heard of this before. Then there's this isn't
I don't know this isn't really a defense. It's almost like a
defect but it also makes the tree dangerous. It's called the
East Eastern cottonwood. It's a very large tree. They can grow
up to 100 foot tall, but it's fragile.
Leila: So it's like a like a prince Bruford drop tail.
David: Oh, yeah, the glass. Yeah. But um, yeah, there's just
these really tall trees that can get very easily knocked over.
The seeds are also mildly toxic. So that's the thing. A lot of
trees seeds are toxic. There's another one that milky mangrove.
It draws grows on tropical coastlines, and it is also one
that oozes a
Leila: sap Oh, I hate that word.
David: I hate both of those words, cause blisters and
swelling and whatnot. Let's see what was the other really
interesting one? Let's see. i This one I didn't know that
while cherry trees are not typically dangerous but
depending on the conditions like storms and whatnot, if it causes
wilting, it'll break down the glycosides found in the wild
cherry leaves and release a toxic component it's called a
prussic acid and it is fatal when consumed so don't go around
just eating leaves if you have Chet wild cherry trees around
you never know cat Castor beans don't castor oil is now is
usually used as like a medicine for medicinal purposes I believe
to get get things moving if you're having an issue with with
regularity yes
Leila: we're a kids show we're not
David: the yeah they used to they used to give castor oil and
maybe they still do maybe they use it for other medicinal
purposes but they have removed the toxins from castor bean
trees grow Castor beans which are not it contains rice and
which is deadly and highly toxic chemical but the castor oil has
removed it so great. And the rest of them the rest of them on
this list are all pretty much just like like poison oak. I
think we all know what that does. You get it on your skin.
It makes you say hey, you streak out what
Leila: what? Yeah, y'all understood? Not totally heard
me.
David: Oh, and then there's this other one was in the NAM Bian
bottle tree. And it's shaped like a bottle. It's shaped like
a bottle. Yes. And that's what holds the water for the tree.
And it kind of it makes the water poisonous. You don't want
to meet you want to drink any water around one of these trees
because it may have leaked poison into the water and hole.
Leila: So I'm gonna talk about redwoods talk. Honestly kind of
interested in. Yeah, it's
David: really neat. Go ahead.
Leila: redwoods. How big do you think everyone would get?
David: Like eight foot eight foot tall? A max? I mean, at
least eight foot tall?
Leila: Well, maybe. But they usually reach more than 350 feet
high.
David: Oh, that was read. Yeah, those records.
Leila: I think there are only are mostly found in California.
But the endangered marbled murrelets lay their eggs upon
the upper branches of the redwoods. And creatures like the
wandering salamander can live their entire life in the Redwood
canopy. So the redwood is kind of like split up into sections.
So like if you imagine a redwood, most of it is okay.
It's like it's split in half. The top half is leaves and the
bottom half is like just the bark. And if you go from the top
down, there is 123456 sections. The Crown canopy, branches,
trunk, bark, and roots.
David: Cool. Most trees
Leila: Yeah, most trees. Let's say Where was I redwoods can
also can be so big and old that other trees and plants live on
their branches and trunk. So they can be just like a like a
little like a little stick. It's like a whole stuff to grow
system. It's a whole that's why I'm calling it like the ultimate
tree. redwoods leaves can both drink from fog and help make it
rain. Which is neat. Redwood leaves clean air by pulling
carbon, pulling in carbon and storing more of it than any
other tree. So they produce more oxygen than any other tree which
makes them the elementary redwoods are resistant to rot
and fire. So all but 5% of old growth were cut down for lumber.
fire can burn I can't wait to just sit there fire resistant.
Resistant doesn't mean Oh, that's true. fire can burn a
cave like cave like hole in a living redwood, where owls and
bats like to live. So it's like a little low key for him and the
tree shock. And the bark can be up to a foot thick. Yeah, just
the bark.
David: They're massive. Have you seen the pictures of people
standing on ones that they cut down? I know on ones that I've
seen him standing next to these old timey pictures of out in
California.
Leila: We just got like pine trees. Yeah, like oak trees
David: and eastern North Carolina.
Leila: In full of tannins, Oh I was just talking about tannins.
Tannins are protected from bugs, rot and fire so it can live for
1000s of years. redwoods have survived for millions of years
with some fossils dating back to the Jurassic age of dinosaurs.
Oh wow. redwoods intertwine their roots with each other to
stabilize one another and share nutrients. It was like a big
it's like a big what to call. What to call it's like a
David: ecosystem. What are you talking about? Oh, just did
Leila: you mess me up networking?
David: No. tree roots.
Leila: It's just like one big tree. But it's got like,
David: Yeah, but they cut down like you said 95% of it. And but
there's still some there's still some redwoods out in California.
Yeah,
Leila: and they're being protected. There's
David: one driver.
Leila: Oh, yeah, there's really big a road through it. Redwood
roots provide to help help provide clean water and habitat
for the endangered co hosts out Salomon to lay their eggs Selma
Selma. I say like it's spelled just to
David: you have made people miss Alma that dinner tonight. I
Leila: did. It was decent. Salmon needs to be seasoned very
well. In a lot of places that cook salmon. Don't season it.
Well, when they cook it. They it just tastes like fish. But when
you get a good seasons, Salman Salman salmon,
David: the place we went tonight, back when they first
opened, they seasoned it really well. They've slacked off since
then.
Leila: I mean, it was it was better than like some of the
salmon have had. Right. But it wasn't the best. Same I've had,
you know, to
David: get lemon and squeezing on top. Now that adds that adds
a lot.
Leila: I just go like little bit. There's even more facts on
the site. This is sempervirens.org. No idea how to
say that. Well,
David: but yeah, they got lots of really good pictures for the
redwoods. redwoods are very, they're huge, interesting tree
you can make you can make like a whole lot of stuff, how to cut
one down. But yeah, they don't. They don't do that anymore.
Those things are just too cool to look at. They're actually you
know, they're making more money off the attraction. Yeah, you
know, cutting down tourism from it,
Leila: which is good. They shouldn't kind of do, right.
David: So we're talking about, you're talking about the parts
of the tree. You see. So on this site, on the nfw.com, which is
the National Wildlife Federation, they list the parts
of the tree known as the crown, which is the branches and leaves
and whatnot, the trunk, which supports it, and it's thus the
highway for the food that's made in leaves to travel. The
Heartwood, which is when trees get older, the inner part
becomes more stiff. It can't, it can no longer carry the sap of
another tree, and water and whatnot. So it gets like gets
clogged up and becomes the support structure like the
bones. And then there's the caveum or cabbie, I'm not sure
it's a layer of cells or a zone of cells, one cell thick, inside
the inner bark.
Leila: cambium cambium. Yeah, because they didn't see this.
You didn't see the first time. That's fine. Oh, okay. Camp
cambium cambium. Like having,
David: okay, my bad. It produces xylem and phloem cells. And
Leila: it sounds like a duo pop group,
David: right. And this, this is where the growth occurs like
outwards, the diameter growth. And it's where the rings and the
inner bark are formed. Basically, this carries this is
the part that carries the water up to the leaves and then the
leaves produce food and the food comes back down and feeds the
roots and the trunk and all the all the rest of the tree. So
it's actually a really neat, neat process of how the trees
get get bigger and whatnot. And talking about that. There is a
tree oh, no, I don't want your newsletter. I couldn't find I
didn't I didn't save the link. I found it but I couldn't say it
didn't say the link there is a tree.
Leila: Whoa, what? I didn't know there's a trees. Oh, yeah.
David: Good. Nice. They were fake. It bleeds.
Leila: It looks like yeah, I looked it up earlier.
David: It looks like human blood. I forgot how like trees
have SAP. Well this app is red in this tree. And the video URL.
Yeah, the little video I watched a charmer put a link in the show
notes. It They say that it's got medicinal purposes.
Leila: Yeah. So that's cool. It helps with pain. Okay,
David: well, there you go. So, but yeah, like the the people
who cut into them the first time, like, Oh no, there's
somebody in the tree. You know? What have I done? What am I
done? But it was just a it was just the tree sap the tree. And
then when I bring that up of course Leila with her mushroom
obsession like oh my gosh, mushrooms does that to
Leila: mushrooms. They some of them have milk that if you cut
into the gills, it'll like milk. Yeah, I don't know pretty much
like SAP. And there is a fully white mushroom. By the way. If
you find any white mushrooms in the forest that aren't like a
puffball. Don't leave him alone. Leave him alone, but it's a
white mushroom. And it's poisonous, obviously. And it has
a blood red milk.
David: Yeah. I just want to clarify SHE SAID DON'T LEAVE
don't. I know I said leave them alone. Know what I say? Yeah,
you said Leave them alone. But you had to put it down in there.
And then you said leave? Yes. Leave them alone.
Leila: Because the majority of white cap white guild mushrooms
are very poisonous. Especially some local to here, which is
scary.
David: It honestly if you don't know exactly what the mushroom
is 100% Sure, just leave alone. Just look at it. Be like, oh,
that's neat. Don't step on it because it can really spores to
just just leave it just leave it alone. Let it be that the
speaking of things that aren't trees on our tree episode.
Bamboo, I fell backwards into bamboo fell down that rabbit
holes will always fall
Leila: backwards into bamboo. I do. We don't live in a bamboo
country.
David: Bamboo. Yeah, we gotta wait. I used to work at a place
in Raleigh. That had a bamboo forest out front. Like a full on
forest of bamboo. I've been proven wrong. So bamboo is not a
tree. Yes, sure. Can it grass? But I call it a tree.
Leila: It is a tree to me.
David: It's a tree to me.
Leila: It's a tree to me.
David: Hey, there's this t shirt. Bamboo. It's a tricky one
to be easy to convert. When you write that down. Comic Sans.
Leila: Everyone knows Comic Sans. So totally.
David: There's a whole bunch of different types of bamboo. The
cool part is how strong it is. It has a tensile strength of
28,000 pounds per square inch.
Leila: That's not as strong as hexagons.
David: What if you had a hexagon made out of bamboo. That's like
Nokia cell phone strength right there. No not. But to give you
an idea of how strong that actually is. mild steel measures
around 23,000 psi versus 20,000 of the bamboo. So it's strongest
mild steel. You can eat bamboo and bamboo is made made into
fiber for clothing. It can be used for concrete reinforcement,
livestock feed, with its foliage being up to 22% protein can be
machined into forms of lumber. You've seen bamboo like chopping
boards and stuff like that. Bamboo is very versatile and
useful. But the interesting honest thing okay, just leave it
leave it is the Grigoriadis flowering gregarious gregarious
flowering is exactly what I said. Don't rewind it most woody
bamboo species and this is coming from gwad owl bamboo.com.
Okay, so most woody bamboo species are subject to
gregarious flowering, which means that all the plants of a
particular species flower at the same time. Now you're like,
Okay, so like, you know, you look out on the field all the
corn flour and at the same time, well, this is different. Because
it doesn't matter where on the planet what the climate is
doing, what type of year it is. time of year, it is type of
year, what type of year it is. We all know that some years are
not the same as others. But no, across the entire planet. All of
this certain species will flower at the same time. And it's just
they don't know why. And that's a really cool fact to me.
Doesn't that kind of blow your mind. You can be winter and
super snowy. But if this bamboo is alive, it's going to flower
at the same time, as you know, middle of the summer on the
other side of the planet. Isn't that interesting? Yeah. And they
don't know why they don't know they're fake. The fake Aliens?
Aliens. They're putting chemicals in the water.
Leila: Oh my gosh, I don't care that my computer can't be
updated anymore. Okay, wait, what? My computer can be up to
the Moorish not old.
David: What are you talking about? It can be updated.
Leila: Well, it can't be like serviced.
David: Oh, okay. It's the eighth. Okay. Yeah, that's hp.
hp. Oh, wait. Wasn't a Windows Windows 10 still getting a bit
anyway? Yeah, sorry, side tangent there. But they think
that it's some sort of a bit genetic alarm clock, which means
they don't know why it does this. So yeah, that's and then
oh, then shortly, like a couple of years after it blooms, that
whatever that species is dies. three to seven years later. So
that's interesting. Very interesting.
Leila: I thought was asleep.
David: Oh, I should get an alarm clock. Genetic alarm clock
speaking of clocks. Leila got a fancy watch.
Leila: You got a fancy watch.
David: They were on sale. Mom got it was Prime Day. Yeah, we
got some little cheap money fitness watches.
Leila: If they don't doing that, but yeah, well, yeah. I'm making
the rich richer.
David: dudes got to do that. Right. But yeah, she's been one
we've been wanting to get some fitness watches to, to tell us
we need to walk more and whatnot. So he was looking on
Leila: Amazon and he was like, Yo, come here.
David: Hey, these are cheap.
Leila: He called mom and first and she's like, Hey, come here.
And I came. I was like,
David: but yeah, pretty excited
Leila: about it. You got his three days before we got ours.
Yeah, and
David: it came in a different box, which I haven't seen happen
that often. Like, it's the same product, same product. The SKU
is like almost the size of the product number is the same
except mine's black and there's or ivory white or whatever color
it is. It's halfway halfway. And everything's the same. But mine
came in a completely different box like mine was like this long
flat box and there's was like a more like the watch was already
in the wrist type shape inside of it. You know? I guess a
circle. Circles are fake. Circles are fake.
Leila: I hate circle XCOM hexagons.
David: So yeah, yeah, this is pretty exciting. We I got the
cool pit boy watch face from Fallout games.
Leila: So I have a custom image of a tree with mushrooms on it.
David: Yeah, yeah. But yeah, so I think you all done I had the
majority of the stuff because I got interested in that that
gregarious flowering things got me. So it's got me all messed
up. Like trying to think of how that works. It's fake. I mean,
it has to be some kind of genetic. I mean, it has to be
genetic from the first ones. That we're of that species,
right? Sure. Like, it's like, you know, 750 years from now, no
matter where the seeds of this bamboo get transplanted. It's
That's it. That's the species like has a has a clock on it.
Gotta be something like that. Anyway, it's neat. I thought it
was neat. Even though there's not a tree. I consider bamboo
trees is a tree to me. It's a tree to me. Oh, and I also
included a link in the show notes to Matador network. And
it's 21 spectacular and unique trees and forests around the
world. And it's just some really cool pictures of trees from
around the world tree tree like the Wisteria tunnel in Japan.
That's a cool tree, the rainbow eucalyptus tree they're they're
really cool, but they're visually me describing them.
doesn't really do much for the for the thing, but check out
