My favorite permaculture tools are the brain and the two hands that my
parents gave to me at birth and which I have had to adapt to the years'
changes. What better tools can there be than those that enable each of us to
adapt to the future. Bryce Ruddock

Hi Brent,

I don't know either, but you piqued my interested so I did a little
googling.

From http://www.businessdictionary.com/definition/freehold-land.html

A freehold is "Real property held under fee simple absolute in
possession."

So from
http://www.businessdictionary.com/definition/fee-simple-absolute-in-possession.html

Fee simple means:

"Highest form of legal estate in freehold land denoting complete
ownership. 'fee simple' means ownership that will not end with the
death of the present owner but will descend to his or her heirs.
'Absolute' means that owner's rights of ownership are not limited by
any condition. And 'inpossession' signifies immediacy of those rights.
Also called by its short form 'fee simple.'"

Searches on "independent freehold" didn't turn up anything useful,
sorry. I think he made that term up. :-)

According to his website, JHK is not accepting emails anymore or you
could have just asked him. Perhaps try the book discussion forum on
KunstlerCast.com: http://kunstlercast.com/forum/index.php?board=6.0

Cheers,
Todd
