		<description>As the daughter and niece of two NYC firefighters I love real trees but appreciate fire retardation treatments and the chance to have it up from Thanksgiving to Ephiphany.  My $5 June Yard Sale bargin Christmas tree makes me smile, and it still sketches the symbolic Trinity of love, knowledge and power. Thanks for the history!</description>

		<description>Merry Christmas to you too!

I wonder if more Christians knew the true story behind the tree if it would motivate them to return to the roots (no pun intended) of the Christmas tree and purchase a real one to emulate the early tradition.</description>
