I don't know how to be more vocal!  If you google Permaculture the second
listing after Wikipedia is the Permaculture Institute.  It seems that most
folks don't take the time to check out what is happening in their own group
let alone nationally, or internationally.

We have been working diligently since `1997 to establish a meaningful
certificate and diploma.  If you check our web site you will see the results
of that work.  

If you have a good idea of how to be more visible I welcome it  but I am not
up for criticism for not doing what no one else has done.

My apologies to values list member Loren. I got up on the wrong side of 
the bed today; no need for rudeness. Such is the nature of email and 
remote conversations.

Valid points:

Vlad has gone nowhere and has not filled any intelligent niche.

The permaculture movement, like the biointensive gardening movement of 
the 60's-to present, is filled with talented, knowledgeable,
dedicated folks who for one reason or another have not been successful 
at generating income for themselves. These are important people
to have in the movement; it would not be the same without them.
