Concur!

The pines grow so fast here that (if the gutters aren't cleaned twice a year) by the next spring you have little bitty 4" trees growing in the downspouts.

(Don't ask me how I found that out....)

Meek doesn't have to worry about that: only about picking up ten billion stringy mesquite beans.

No mesquite here, but the reason I have a steep roof and no gutters is teeny little oak and cedar seedlings that popped up in my next door neighbor's gutters last spring. He was cleaning them over the weekend though...

My husband installed gutters and downspouts for nearly 25 years - I'm sure I can figure out how you found that out!!!!!1
