Fruit trees and necessity

[IATIA]

That's a rabbit? I thought it was some down under wombat thingy.

Until the rabbit was mentioned, I thought the avatar to be a koala.

Rob? What did you think it was?

Is it me or are these guys

Much as I'd like to say something witty, I did think it was a rabbit

Although I had a weird association between the rabbit and Spock for a while.

Here is a single question posed in two different formulas:

     1) Do fruit trees make fruit according to certain conditions or not?

     2) Do certain conditions determine that fruit trees make fruit or not?

I am not so sure both are taking about the exact same thing. As per my understanding of the questions, the first one is asking if certain conditions can effect the production of fruit, that is more like effecting the attributes of the fruit. The second is asking whether the trees can produce anything at all depending on the conditions.

Anyway, take me as 'yes' for both questions.



@OP: if you are just doing a survey with yes/no answers, you should consider adding a poll.

Thanks! (especially about the poll recommendation)

Would you say that it is evident (or at least, demonstrable) that certain conditions determine that fruit trees make fruit or not?

Of course it is evident.  I can create conditions that will cause any tree to not produce fruit.  Similarly, I can create conditions that will produce fruit.

Thanks!

I'd like to again recognise Ignorant for asking questions and then genuinely listening to our responses, and not putting words in our mouths, or poking Jesus down our throats every five seconds. It's very refreshing.

I really appreciate you saying that, Rob!
