lets remember the people care side of permaculture and remember to give each
other a little leeway
and space and not end up in ultimately harmful cross firings- I think the
'Zone 6' thread a while
back seemed in danger of going down that road, but I think we all kind of
remembered that this is,
after all, just a chat and a debate, an airing of viewpoints which one might
not even necessarily
hold oneself, and (I hope!) we are all friends at the end of the day. The
dynamics are interesting,
in a face to face conversation comments such as Judiths, or some of mine or
Scott's or whoever
about Zone 6 would just be idle 'pub banter' but here in cyber space it all
seems such a big
deal!!!
A healthy dose of a sense of perspective all round please!!! (he said,
merrily adding to the waste
of bandwidth!!!!)
