One of our own #wawx members is recovering from a pretty bad bout of Covid. He's been in the community for a decade plus now, I've talked with him on Twitter since I joined the platform.

Most of their cones can’t even open absent fire. They only open after being toasted by one, scattering the seeds for the next generation of lodgepole pines (which germinate best in bare mineral soil, rich in ash).
