Re: WWOOF – World Wide Opportunities On Organic Farms

Hi! Great post - investigated the site. Their US site is not quite up and running...

We will need more and more organic growers. Around the world, more and more generational country farmers are moving into the cities and giving up their age old farming techniques.

They have many lifetimes of experience raising the best food possible... and its on its way to becoming a lost art.

If we mix the old with the new, we can perfect the techniques and make organic farming easier for the farmer.

Organic farmers are a noble breed - they deserve our highest respect for all they struggle through.

Larger companies are attempting to switch over. They will need gentle policing as they tend to think "profits" rather than pure organics.

Individual organic farmers are truly heroes. They need our support. If we buy organic, we won't need to buy nor eat as much and thus, we can save money, even.

We can supplement by growing beautiful food in containers.

Companies such as Monsanto are hopeful that they will take over all food crop farming using GMO, hybrids and specialized pesticides. This will insure eternal profits.

Since most seed flies through the air, Monsanto most probably hopes (good business after all) that their seed genomes will dispurse throughout the globe so that all organic farmers can be charged either criminally or financially for involuntary inclusion of patented genetic material.

Although this may be a great business move on the part of companies such as Monsanto, it's bad for those who love the flavor, nutrition and benefits of eating pure organic. And heirloom, by the way.

Ironically, most high quality gourmet restaurants (who cater to CEOs and the like) usually buy organic or natural fruits, vegetables, grains and meats. What would they do if organics disappeared?

We can start growing in our own backyards and even in containers... It's easier than most people think.

Just the other day we had home grown herb salad - phenomenal. My friend's chicken's eggs with herbs is better than fillet mignon...

It's amazing what we all can do with just a little effort!

In the end, it's all up to us!

Hi Jason, I'm glad to hear that you're doing right and attempting to apologize. From now on, I hope you can make a real go of your awesome site and always give credit to Mike and his (also incredibly awesome) site. (If that's okay with him)

I also really appreciate that you're responses are measured and polite.

I really hope that you and Mike can work this out - there's not EVER enough people to get the message out about good and natural things.

Also it's highly doubtful that Mike would intend people to cruelly attack you with vicious diatribes or "ragin."

It doesn't serve all of our interests, including his. Negativity and corrosive rage are probably the last things he wants to incite.

Mike seems like a particularly generous and good man. You all have so much to offer!

Well, back to studying! : )

Re: Nokia N85 & N79 : Live Pictures

Hi Ani! Sadly, none of the phones are interesting - the iphone seems to be the best so far! But, the Nokia N85 seems to be rather good looking...

I wish they would come out with a nice phone/pda that has the following: big beautiful clear screen, iphone keyboard type (it does work rather well), custom applications that AREN'T under the manufacturer's control, FULL not mobile Internet, is NOT ATT, fast connection speed, and where I can actually do mini computer tasks!

I would like my phone/minicomputer to be maybe a small notebook.

Ani, also - could you send a Jaiku invite?? :O

Ellie!
