permaculture

[Michael Pilarski <friendsofthetrees@yahoo.com>]

Hello Rosemary Morrow,

Thank you for your suggestion.

We have met seldom, if ever, but are of a common ilke.  Your name is a common 
household word in the permaculture movement. 

A Permaculture Dictionary of Biography for our deceased comrades would be a 
good thing.  It would take a committed individual to set it up.  Hardly a 
priority for most of the youthful permaculture corps with an eye set on the 
momentous tasks of our time. 

My memoriam for John Cruickshank is but a miniscule contribution to all of 
which could be written of him and his history.  Certainly I would love if 
everyone who knew and loved John could send their comments to a central focus 
that would collate it under his name.  

The same with Simon Henderson, beloved of many here in the Pacific Northwest. 
 

Each Permaculture Bioregion of the world has its lost heroes.  

I wisht I had the time to perform this function for our permaculture 
movement. 

Is anyone out there capable and willing to set something up?

Michael Pilarski

Dear Michael:

In Australia we have a long established Dictionary of Biography which is 
actually a dictionary of Quakers who have died.   There we place our 
eulogies/memoriums to Quakers.   Some are a bit sparky and others just 
serene.   I wonder how permaculturists would like a Permaculture Dictionary 
of Biography?

Here is the website which would do well as a model.

warmly

Rowe Morrow
