permaculture

["John D'hondt" <dhondt@eircom.net>]

Very interesting but unlikely imo. Fungi are recyclers of organic material 
and there was not a lot of it before the land was colonised by real plants 
and animals. Also a mushroom is just a way for a fungus to procreate and 
most of the fungus is out of sight under ground. No point in having your 
gonads bigger than the rest of you.
