Again, just because someone sends me a notice with a piece of paper claiming that some guy with six months experience from 120 miles away said XYZ, doesn't mean it's 100% known. Critical thinking dictates a second opinion, as another astute poster here has also noted, he received two different opinions from two different arborists. Heck, I had4 different opinions on the condition of the house from four different home inspectors when selling the house! These are people who get a mere two weeks of training to do their jobs....just because one says XYZ doesn't make it so.
