Healthy soil and sustainable growing

["Tradingpost" <tradingpost@lobo.net>]

As for oil and food production, one look at all the corporate sponsors paying 
for NPR/PBS tells the story. They do some of their best greenwashing there. 
In any event, the perfect storm of resource depletion, economic decline, 
climate change, and political gridlock is beginning to affect all of us 
regardless of our politics. Like the Gulf spill, it's only the beginning. And 
our polics isn't going to feed us or run our cars and trucks. We're going to 
feed us. And on my information this year is going to end a lot worse than it 
started. YMMV.
