John, Mark knows the difference between good and bad scientists, however 
he is new to this forum and knows nothing about Joe, Mae, Eva, Huber and 
others you and I have been reading for years in sanet and eleswhere. You 
could provide some background on Cummins, Wae Won Ho, ISI and Dr. Huber 
if you have time.

Mark has many years of experience protecting the habitats of endangered 
snakes and is the expert I would see advice from when I needed detailed 
information. He is instrumental in establishing a protection zone for 
the endangered and very rare copperbelly water snake in Michigan. He 
managed to have a public road closed to traffic and blocked for further 
use in the process.

Mark is a perfect fit for this discussion forum and I am sure will field 
questions about wildlife management sent his way. He and I date back to 
somewhere around 1961 when we shared a rural log cabin in the country 
outside Chapel Hill where he was in school at UNC. I think that if there 
had been any career opportunities in permaculture back then we would 
probably have followed that path, at least I would have.

When are you going to post pictures of your farm? How close are you to 
the water, i.e. ocean or lake?
