I have extensive knowledge of the program. The only thing I found "intensive" was the volunteer hours.

And you can dress it up any way you want, but there were plenty enough dead foxtails, christmas palms and arecas down there in the 'new' south end of TV from last years very average winter, to back up my statement, as well as the information given by the real experts in the field, like Betrock's et al.

I know MG club has told people over and over that mature queen palms are dying from the cold in this area... though that hasn't happened here since we lost around 3% to the 100 year freeze back in 1985. More likely it is the premature deflowering of the seed pods over time killing the queens.
You can gather all the data you want to dispute the facts, but they are still facts.
