What I think we must talk about here is Truth. The point is that truth and defined terms co-exist. In the above photographs the tree tells us exactly what happened. In order to describe that we as technicians require the right jargon. If Jargon is confused by someone the whole understanding can be confused. This is why Nomenclature came to be. How many ash trees are there. But are we talking about Fraxinus americana or Corymbia tessellaris or Eucalyptus ragnans or a Scoparium. Undefinable. So clarity is necessary. It matters how we talk between us or confusion may occur.
