Hi all,

For many years I have been a rebel and purist.  Having to do it MY 
way making sure that I did not conform to the mainstream.  Also for 
many years (about 10) I have been trying to teach Pc here in the 
Desert southwest - to no avail.  About three years ago I started 
talking about organic gardening and people started listening - So now 
I teach how to grow a garden and plant a tree (with a deep underlying 
theme of Pc).  Before I was getting no one to our classes.  Now we 
regularly have 10 to 15 per class. Same message - different method.

If Bill Gates were to give me a grant I would gladly take the $ and 
use it for good.  I think in the hands of great Pc'ers like us we 
could do great good with it.  Put away the purity and lets get some 
work done.
