Mega-NonNerd to the power of NoCase

Tapi insists that I should put this on my blog with "Mega-Nerd to the Power of Nutcase" as title. We were looking out the patio when I saw a tree that was completely red on one side and green on the other and I said "It looks like this tree can't make up its mind on whether it is coniferous or deciduous". =)
In my defense, that does NOT qualify me as nerd or even fractional nerd because:
a) They are not opposites and may have been if i said "evergreen" instead of coniferous.
b) The statement was simply a memorizing mechanism owing to that brilliant Nature Handbook that I have become addicted to. I challenge anyone to pick it up (and peruse for at least thirty seconds) and not be enslaved by it.
c) Most importantly, I don't even know if that statement makes sense, thereby proving that I was wrong and that in itself automatically disqualifies me as nerd.

(commiting to memory: coniferous deciduous coniferous deciduous ... deciduous diminishing coniferous evergreen deciduous diminishing coniferous evergreen ... )
