Answers..

So I just Googled the Rockefeller Christmas tree to see if I could get some answers on my many questions from before and I found some pretty interesting stuff:
The minimum requirements are 65 ft. tall and 35 ft. wide, but the manager prefers it to be between 75-90 ft. It is a real tree (usually a Norway Spruce) and since this kind of tree doesn't usually grow this big in forests, it is typically taken from someone's yard. Which is kind of a bummer for the owner, especially because they don't get paid anything, but hey, they get the satisfaction of it being their tree.
The only thing on the tree is lights (over 5 miles of them!) and the star. At the end of the year the tree is recycled and the mulch is given to the boy scouts. Which comes to be over 3 tons!..
The largest part of the trunk is given to the U.S. Equestrian team in New Jersey so they can use it as an obstacle jump.

So I have answered a few of my questions but if you have any more answers let me know.
