permaculture

[Scott Pittman <pci@permaculture-inst.org>]

I agree with your detractor in that Bill and the literature is devoted to 
non chemical production.  The difference between organiculture and 
permaculture is probable that pc is interested in the total biosphere and 
human occupation of that biosphere while, I assume, organiculture is 
concerned with food production only.
