Tree clearing

["laura griner" <griner@nashville.net>]

Is anyone forwarding these messages to the management at the mall?  

I'd be happy to do this, or to print the messages and send them by snail mail,
if someone can send me the name and address.  I'm from out of town and don't
have access to this information.  (But I'll soon be living there and want things
to stay green!)

Cheers.

Laura Hill
