Because I am not interested in how the preps tested, I did not follow that thread, hence my misunderstanding that they had in fact been tested. Jean-Paul did not express interest, I was just lucky enough to be at the farm, ate some wonderful farm food, and mentioned the thread at bdnow. He is well aware of how ridiculous the USDA org regs are as regards e coli, and in fact mentioned that there could not possibly be any e coli in a properly made "compost" or compost tea!
Apparently I have not learned my lesson to keep myself out of these political bruha's. Was only wanting to share some of your good work with JP, who is something of a soil magician, and was curious ONLY after I brought it up. Take your rescue remedy, and failing that drink a lot of oat straw tea my dear! Jane > Does that help? > > -Allan >
