Hi All: I couldn't find and appropriate newsgroup for this post so I
thought I'd try this one. Besides, if I don't solve this problem, I
will be needing a home repair.

We cut a fress Christmas tree a couple of weeks ago at a local tree
farm; it is a Balsam Fir. Since this tree was huge, by the time I set
it up, I ended up cutting about one foot off the bottom and 6 inches
from the top. The important thing is that it was a fresh cut just
before I put up the tree and filled the tree holder pan with water.

This tree will not drink water. Is it becasue it is a fresh tree and
doesn't need it?

Any suggestions on what I should do?

Why not pray to Jeeesis to save the tree?? After all, it's a living
thing which was cut down for the purpose of dying in your living room to
celebrate his birth......

Maybe today, but the tree was orginally brought into the house this
time of year to welcome woodland spirts of life into your home during
the death of winter.

The christmas tree was added to the 25th of December over time and
tradition, nothing to do with the birth of Christ.

Just saying.....
