To change 0.29 to 29 meters (the top of a tree) one must
assume that r=0.5 microns. What evidence do we have for
the existence long tubes of such radii? My guess is that the
"tubes" are not so thin and that they work in tandem, one
after another. Is this correct?

In other words the traditional model (the capillary tube
analogy) is not valid here. It is valid for a sponge, or
a tissue paper, but not for a plant. Right?
