Thought this was going to lead to something about a major annoyance or weird commenters but pleasantly surprised at the list of impacts, heartfelt, emotive, human experiences connecting community from the physical to the virtual (to the otherworldly no doubt).

There are a lot of trees with similar sort of sponsorships and commemorations... wonder if a spin off would be something like opentreebutes.org ?

Please build it! There are lots of lovely tree memorials which should also be preserved.

Yeah, I likewise thought this was going to be about people being brutally unpleasant - commenting to laugh at the dead, to pour scorn on their families, that sort of thing.

I am jaded. Then again I come from a family where people go to funerals to gloat and start fights.
