Brief Introduction

Salicin is a naturally occurring compound found in the bark of several species of trees, primarily North American in origin, that are from the willow, poplar, and aspen families. White willow, from whose Latin name, Salix alba, the term salicin is derived, is the most well known source of this compound, but it is found in a number of other trees, shrubs, and herbaceous plants as well being synthesized commercially. It is a member of the glucoside family of chemicals and is used as an analgesic and antipyretic. Salicin is used as a precursor for the synthesis of salicylic acid and acetylsalicylic acid, commonly known as aspirin.

A colorless, crystalline solid in its pure form, salicin has the chemical formula C13H18O7. Part of its chemical structure is equivalent to the sugar glucose, meaning it is classified as a glucoside. It is soluble, but not strongly so, in water and alcolhol. Salicin has a bitter taste and is a natural analgesic and antipyretic, or fever reducer. In large quantities, it can be toxic, and overdoses may lead to liver and kidney damage. In its raw form, it may be mildly irritating to skin, respiratory organs, and eyes.

20160712採訪的焦點在於一群資深保險從業人員，轉行搞社企，推廣種樹，這中間的心境轉換及最大的差異是什麼？

回答：
在保險業時本來想種「人」(老闆、主管、討厭的客戶之類的)，但種人是犯法，所以我們改種樹，化悲憤為力量，現已經種了數千棵(不是我們討厭這麼多人，而是種樹種上癮)，而將那些討厭鬼變成守護我們的人。所以我們準備開辦一個特殊課程：「發泄體力，種下你所討厭的人，讓它無所怨言的保護你生生世世」，這樣我們解決了社會對立的問題，化干戈為玉帛。哈…樹不會契撤，客戶會契撤…。
