Wonderful post, Jude! You've said many things that I've been groping
towards.

Spoken like a true teacher!

resurrected from the 'dust' of the late 90's. It is thrilling to
hear the term Permaculture being recognized and honored when I'm
reading journals, out in our community or at conferences (such as
Eco-Farm- Tilth- Bioneers- etc)"

I can verify that impression. I keep running into permaculturalists
at the various gardening and environmental events I attend in the
south SF Bay Area. There is a great hunger for the permaculture
approach.

to offer more advanced courses on a variety of topics-- water, soil,
plants, invisible structures.. etc."

Absolutely. More books, more classes, more in-depth treatments. I
wonder if it would be a good idea for permaculturalists to draw upon
the expertise of specialists in allied fields, perhaps through
networking.
