<< So yes in the US its a dead word and Gils comment stands, elswhere it is what we the practioners make it and the Associations are just monuments to certain individuals egos and near on irrelevant except to a fanatical few. Im for holding the vision of BD as wholistic and continuing on. When in the US I guess I will have to use Quantum Ag or some such term. hummmmm bummer. Glen >> Glen, those who choose to call bd dead in the US have isolated themselves from the people of the movement. They are depriving themselves of open communication with many creative and hardworking folks that will continue with or without ''their'' approval. For instance, I just spent this past weekend at a ''Future of the Preparations'' meeting where regionalization by existing groups was strengthened and will continue to be developed in a very highly positive manner. About sixty folks came to Camphill Copake and discussed the possibilities for the future. This will happen. There was nothing dead about the meeting. What was dead was the input of those who say bd is dead, ergo they must be the dead ones. Just wanted to update you from the positive aspects of the bd reality. By the way the remedy you inspired me to make, bc with 500-508 is absolutely wonderful. Hope to meet you next time you are in the USA...peace, SStorch
