 So if we can get the Iraqis, Russians, and Chinese interested in
 Permaculture, the rest of us should be sorted, eh?

 The trouble (well, one of them) with things like this is that they
 remain unproven.

 The US gov was at the time also keen on staring at goats (in such
 a way as to make them die by willpower alone) and walking through
 walls (by concentrating in such a way as to allow a human's entire
 atomic-level structure to 'shift' slightly to one side and slide
 through the sub-atomic gaps as it were).

 Dreadfully reassuring stuff, to be sure.

 Suggesting that something has legitimacy because the yanks
 investigated it is about as compelling as suggesting something has
 no legitimacy because the same people investigated it.

 Jedd.
