I Would Like To Propose An Experiment.
I would like to propose an experiment.
Now forgive me if such a thing already exists or is ongoing but I am typing this while at work and don't have time to research.
So take a big patch of land and put a tree farm on it. Mostly fill it up with a fast growing tree species (perhaps a fast growing species of pine) but also evenly space a second species of much larger but slower growing tree. Then periodically harvest and replant the faster trees while leaving the slower trees alone.
Also cut the farm in half. On one half do a seasonal burn of the lower brush and on the other half don't.
The goal of this experiment would be to see how the size of the larger trees impacts the growth of the smaller trees and other biotic and abiotic factors.
Will they help them grow faster?
Will they make them grow more slowly?
How will the bigger trees impact the soil?
How will the smaller trees impact the soil?
What kinds of fauna will this benefit?
What kinds of fauna will this harm?
Will this help or harm the ecosystem in and around the tree farm?
How does the fire impact the soil?
How does the fire impact the trees?
How does the fire impact the fauna?
How does the fire affect the nutrient cycle?
How do the big trees impact the nutrient cycle?
How do the small trees impact the nutrient cycle?
Ask someone who studied fungi to tell you what the hell they are doing.
Will this encourage or discourage biodiversity?

If wolverine is your favorite X-Man then you probably just like strong male characters.
If wolverine and nightcrawler are your favorite X-Men then you probably like a good "bear x twink" dynamic.
If wolverine, nightcrawler, and beast are your favorite X-Men then you are definitely a furry.
Hi dads. How was your vacation?
You were happy with getting an A+ on your “vampire myths” essay, with a comment about how you did excellent research, but you thought that was the end of it. A few days later, though, you open your door to find a vampire and a vampire hunter on your porch.
