(The energy/infrastructure discussion going down on this list right now is 
worthy of organization and compilation into one document which I would love 
to post on the fb page to increase the chances that people will consider, 
respond and build the community of this group think. We are fortunate where 
we live in that we have a couple of architects, among other people, who have 
taken an interest in focalizing such discussions...)

Paul,
As I figured. Your ego is in the way of your mind considering things
freely. I offered a different perspective, never saying wrong and right.
I'm sorry you see things so black and white, and are so convinced of your
own way.

Why do you always resort to attacks, man? I'll win that one every time, I
guarantee you, but I gave that up right around high school, with an
occasional foray back into it at times, which is tempting here, but I'll
refrain. I think in general people just want to engage in a discussion with
you rather than going to trash talk, but time and again, your ego feels
hurt and defensive. When you put up a wall to block the wind, the wind is
intensified.

I maintain that I think you are missing a few things about permaculture,
but I see it is more about you missing a few things about how to live. I
for one am glad you are at least using your unshakable sense of importance
for gardening stuff rather than something worse.

Peace to you in the New Year!
