Please excuse my rudeness, as an ignorant newby from down under, but do you
ever get your hands dirty? What use is all this intellectualisation of
Permaculture, which really needs no explanation other than its results. I'd
rather cast thistle seeds in the desert, I'm sure I'd achieve a more
"sustainable" end result . . . . just DO IT, man, and let your actions be
your words.
Hungry people can't eat words, and if you give them too many, watch out,
they just might eat you!
I find that the intelligence of a group of humans is usually in inverse
proportion to its size, but Bill Mollison's philosophy is so non-dogmatic,
all-embracing, and globally relevant, that even an old anarchist could be
attracted to its thesis. But when PC (permaculture) is replaced by PC
(political correctness) in the guise of words, then its time to start making
the bombs again . . . . when Permaculture is taken over by intellectuals, or
worse still, evangelists, then all hope is lost!
UP the Warriors!
