Permaculture mailing list, hosted by ibiblio.org -
-- portal to an expanding global network of landtech pioneers --
This forum is dedicated to those interested in the study,
practice and teaching of permaculture, a discipline
started and stewarded by Bill Mollison & David Holmgren
plus hundreds more with varying expertise around the
world. Wikipedia permaculture entry:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permaculture
"Permaculture is a design system which aims to create sustainable
human habitats by following nature's patterns."
SUGGESTED USAGE GUIDELINES:
1) Be respectful of others... there is an actual human being on the other end of those words you're reading.
2) Be enthusiastic, after all, most are here because they really do enjoy permaculture.
3) Avoid the usual.... politics and religion... as much as practical.
4) Be engaging.... Post, post, post... Offer input when you can and recognize when you can't.
5) Start a new thread instead of hijacking one that offends you.
6) Have fun! Permaculture IS fun, interesting, useful and enlightening.
The wonderful people here make even more enjoyable.

I think there would be few unwilling to accept these GUIDELINES -thanks for
posting -and thanks for hanging in there -most recently and- all these
years... I would like to take the opportunity to thank the rest of you on
this list for hangin' in there too. It takes a village an' all that...
I would also like to take this opportunity to interject another set of
useful guidelines:
I have come to the point where I think that the way to understand/solve more
and more issues is by using plain ol' reason and logic.
Maybe we could also agree to try to use logic and watch for fallacies in
presenting and especially in trying to rebut an issue... I have incorporated
this information and discussion into our Permaculture Design Courses as
patterns of communication. Please review some of the handouts developed by
the University of North Carolina below.
