permaculture

["Scott Pittman" <scott@permaculture.org>]

Weeds can be banned from the garden and relegated to the compost pile, or,
as I do, left as mulch around my tomatoes and squash to cool the soil, add
carbon, and suppress other weeds.

Shunning is an old tried and true method of dealing with out of control
elements of a society, just don't respond, this is a lesson I have often
been unable to practice, but I am getting better.

I keep wondering if there is a permaculture way we can deal with the  
"social ecology"/guilds on lists like this one. Banning people ("weeds"?) is

certainly one way, but perhaps there are other ways as well to build healthy

guilds of very diverse people to create a productive online communication  
ecosystem? And perhaps some of those "weeds" have beneficial characteristics

to  contribute to the whole?

that's too bad. I hope no one else follows  suit. The negativity expressed 
by
the few over a period of months does not  represent the totality of this
forum's worth- of what it can give to you  and what you can give to it over
the years. A little spurt of disunion over  political grounds is no reason 
to
stop collaborating, networking, and  building a body of practical and
theoretical permaculture  knowledge.

Why give up the 90% because 10% of it is bad?

That's  not good permaculture practice.
