I'm kind of torn about all of this.  I'm a fan of Logsdon's.  I wonder whether he's refering to large-scale operations?  If so, I highly doubt that such operations can do true no-till.  But, clearly, small-scale no-till is possible.  Anyone have a channel for communications with Logsdon?  Would be nice to open up this discussion to him.
