Holiday Poll — Real Tree, Fake Tree, None of the the Above?

Okay, it may not be as serious as the European debt crisis or the battle over the Book Exchange at the El Cerrito Recycling Center, but the annual choice of what kind of Christmas tree to put up is one that confronts nearly every household. Some wrestle with environmental implications or commercialization overload, while others enjoy the simple pleasure of recreating a cherished family tradition.

Whatever your feelings are about it, please take our poll on what kind of tree you're using, and we also invite you to share your reason in the comments section.
