Although this time about a fake Christmas tree!

It's interesting to read about the history of petty child-like scuffles between the two competitors amidst stories of terror, murder, politics all over the newspaper. Some stories like these are per se interesting, limiting the role of a hooking lede and earth-shattering quotes. This one provides good context although I found the kicker to be inconsistent. Suddenly the writer talks about smell of the product when the entire story about patent is over its looks. Also I would have liked a quote from a customer as after all it all boils down to business.
