Well, I wasn't going to weigh in on this one, enough having been
said. However, Bruce has pointed out something worth noting: Lion is
selling his micro-farming idea, in the form of franchises. Apparently
all he gives away is abusive language.
Thanks to Andy and Bruce for thoughtful and concise responses. I'm
planting too.

Subject: Re: Permaculture pyramid
In the early 80's I found much encouragement from the developing
decentralized self- help education and emphasis on practice and
experience-based learning that Permaculture brought forward.
It may seem like a pyramid scheme to the Lion guy with the cutesy name, but
the currency I've seen is more informational than luchre.
I wonder what product he is selling?
Something got him stirred up, maybe he could plant something everyplace and
become a world expert, comment critically on some listserv and make web
pages.
i guess I'll go planting now.
