permaculture

[jamesdavid Sneed <harvestcircle@hotmail.com>]

Thanks for the info. It sounds promising. The only caveat that immediately 
comes to mind would be that just because a microbe is natural doesn't mean it 
affects all living organisms benignly. While I have no evidence that any of 
these would cause collateral harm, it is a pattern of human activity in the 
last century of so-called civilization to assume that particular technologies 
(organic or otherwise) were "one-size fits all" or were benign except towards 
their target. Unfortunately, we were often wrong.
