Kevin and Ecolog:
Just what is it about bare mineral soil that is needed to ensure the
perpetuation of any life form? And just what research and replication of it
has demonstrated that?

Seems relevant at this time to remind ourselves of the statistical meaning
of correlation vs its popular use and perhaps more importantly why Ecology
and Evolutionary Biology became and continue to be experimental sciences
whenever possible.
From the classic stats text Steele and Torrie (1980 p
Dear fire/urban threaders,
Since both grazing and fire have lots of variable effects depending on
frequency, intensity, seasonal timing, weather conditions etc, I am
troubled by assertions that fire achieves effects that are not achieved by
grazing. This may indeed be true, but to state that
Overview:

This reminds me of a story I heard from an old Alan Watts lecture: Imagine
you're looking through a small hole in a fence. There is a cat on the other
side, but for the sake of the story, pretend you've never seen a cat
before. And the entire cat is not visible all at once through this small
hole.
No. We already understand enough about geochemistry, about tissue damage, about
organismal development to understand that fire and grazing often can have
effects not achieved by the other. We also know that there are similarities in
their effects. If you're waiting for experimental evidence
