I just caught up with Alex a few weeks ago.� He and Frances Porter were doing a tour of Demeter properties up the east coast of Australia, up past the Atherton Tablelands, as far as I know, and back down the coast to Victoria.
He didn't seem like a man to lay back and "enjoy his moment of glory in the sun".� He's still working hard for Biodynamics and is mentally alert and fully on top of things - I don't think there's anything going on here that he isn't aware of, for example.
Alex's priority is with people who are serious about growing food for other people, on a scale he thinks is worth his time and trouble.� He has no time for people who have an "interest" in BD or are just curious.� As he says, there are other vehicles for these people.
I have always been impressed by Alex and even more so at this last meeting.
Dear Graeme,
On this we have agreement. Lest we forget, we all make our mistakes, even Alex. But Alex's dedication and enthusiasm are something I've long admired greatly. When his time comes, may he die with his boots on.
Best,
Hugh
