permaculture

Tony...

I'm on vacation for a month starting tomorrow.  Otherwise, I'd contribute an
article.  I love the subject of fire.... But then, I live in Linn county...
The Grass Seed Burning capital of the world.

Here's a couple of suggestions, though.

1.  Contact Wilderness Firefighter magazine in Springfield for some
suggested reprints... Maybe do some cross-promotion?

2.  Find some kind of article on Fuel Loading and Fireproofing of
property... Especially timbered property.

3.  Find an article on prescribed burning?

4.  I've got a video somewhere in my library on prescribed burn in forest
lot management in my library, but I don't have the time to look for it.

5.  You might check with Allan Savory about reprinting Ch. 41 on Burning
from his Holistic Management.

I've also forwarded your posting to a friend of mine from Eugene.. Kyle
deBord, who is a former timber worker and wilderness firefighter.... Also a
writer, but with a minimal knowledge of Permaculture.
