Answer I got when we had itQUESTION:

"I_have_a_Live_oak_tree_that_is_covered_with_some_type_of_cobweb_silky_from_its_base_on_up_only_on_the_bark_can_anyone_tell_you_what_it_is"

I HAVE A LARGE LIVE OAK (BEEN TOLD IT IS ALOT OLDER THAN ME) AND THE ANSWERS I HAVE GOTTEN FROM MY TREE MAN AND OTHERS I HAVE ASKED TO VERIFY IS:

LEAVE IT ALONE - THE SILKY FILM HAS SOME KIND OF INSECT THAT IS EATING OFF ANOTHER INSECT THAT HURTS THE TREE. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT THE FILM IS GOOD FOR THE TREE.

WE HAVE BEEN IN THE HOUSE WITH THE LIVE OAK FOR 10 YRS AND HAVE HAD THE FILM 3 TIMES AND OUR TREE IS DOING GREAT! I KNOW IT LOOKS SCARY, BUT WE HAVE HAD NO PROBLEM AND IT WILL LEAVE ON IT'S OWN.

-Sounds like lichen to me.

If you loan your car to a step-child who does not live with you will the insurance company cover in case of an accident?

Anyone you give permission to is covered on your policy. Family members are certainly covered, even step children no living with you. Do not use this availability as primary insurance for them though. They should be listed on the residential parent's policy.
