The other question is how many of that 9 billion are morons who form the
queues of the dumb ignorant and brainwashed lining up to kiss the feet of
an ever increasing array of evangelists and drinking plasticised water with
all forms of controlling chemicals in, and, eating synthetic food. There is
one argument that suggests that only the gifted and intelligent will
survive another suggests that the meeek will inherit the earth. Then there

is "HARRP " perhaps the illuminati are working on another great plague.

HAARP (High-Frequency Active Auroral Research Program) is a damnable weapon of mass destruction (invented by Bernard Eastlund: USP # 4,686,605 ~ # 5,38,664 ) that contravenes the United Nations "Convention on the Prohibition of Military or Any Other Hostile Use of Environmental Modification Techniques" (approved in December 1976). The treaty prohibits "the use of techniques that would have widespread, long-lasting or severe effects through deliberate manipulation of natural processes and cause such phenomena as earthquakes, tidal waves, and changes in climate and weather patterns". The US government openly advertises its intentions in the publication "Weather as a Force Multiplier: Owning the Weather in 2025" by Col. T. House, et al. (August 1996) . The report acknowledges that, "The difficulty, cost and risk of developing a weather control system for military applications [is] extremely high". It justifies the effort, however, with the rationale (according to Dr Arnold Barnes, who consulted in the study) that the "opportunities to capitalize on investment militarily [are] medium/high" and the "political implications/health hazards medium/low". (www.au.af.mil.au/2025/volume3/chap15/v3c15-1.htm )

Such military programs also violate the National Environmental Protection Act (42 U.S.C. Sec. 4331a), the policy of which is to "create and maintain conditions under which man and nature can exist in productive harmony."

Awareness is a great thing but we also need to be growing our own and have
a full kitchen garden with bursting zone 1s & 2s along with that cellar of
course, while we are continually educating the unlearned...

and rid our movement of the Evangelists, self appointed Princes and Gurus.

I agree completely. I really don't like the negative publicity and false impression of permaculture generated by those teaching how to become rich through permaculture to the exclusion of much more important elements of eduction for practitioners and professionals. We need to avoid a new generation of lawsuit happy permaculture used car salesmen, slugging it out in the public marketplace promoting their "brands" (never heard that term used in the context of real permaculture) defying anyone to criticize their marketing campaigns upon thread of lawsuit by their battery of lawyers. This has happened; I recently heard about one forcing people who posted "unfavorable comments about their commercial activities" to a public web forum to recant, withdraw comments or whatever suited their ego-driven anti-permaculture money madness. This is not permaculture which is not a religion, but a lens through which you can experience a brighter, more enhanced, broader and deeper view of the world and a guide to living in harmony with nature and with Earth's inhabitants. You can make all the money you want; that's a non-issue; its how you do it and what you do with that money that sends the message to the public, that tells them what permaculture is all about, whether it be negative or positive.
