I vote for a new administrator of this list or, would anyone else like to
start another international permaculture list where people with open minds
can exchange ideas without being chastised?
I didn't realize it was up for a vote. Mailing lists aren't democracies.
Remember the Pc principle of "the problem is the solution?" Rather than complaining about an unfulfilled need, get off your fundament and *fill* it. It's not up to anyone else to make you happy and fulfilled.

Respectfully,
Loren
