Homestead mailing list

[EarthNSky <erthnsky AT bellsouth.net>]

Maybe some of you listen to Coast to Coast at night, probably most of
you don't, but I try to listen, and last night was an interesting show.
The show was about upcoming innovations that will change our lives.  I
mention it here because some of this stuff has homestead implications.
Also, in an effort to be more positive, this stuff falls under good news.

This stuff will replace steel..no more mining, smelting, etc.

Would this finally satisfy the rules on leak proof coffins?

Maybe you can turn your farm pond into something that can run your tractor!

This might be good for anyone who is chemically sensitive or who has asthma.
