The Triumph of Technique: The Industrialization of Agriculture & The Destruction of Rural America 	The Triumph of Technique: The Industrialization of Agriculture & The Destruction of Rural America "To everything there is a"To everything there is a season..." The world and time we are in here, now certainly seems be be in a season of break down, but I also see the seeds of the build up of a new way to live for this world. Robert Wolf is, of course, one of those seeds. Just like in my garden, I plant things in the fall so that they can start growing then resume in the spring, or winter over as seeds and sprout first thing in the spring; there are people, ideas and sustainable technologies that will enable us to blossom once this season of breakdown is over. Another way I look at it. If things are so bad now, why is there no other time in the past that I would want to go back to if I could unless strictly temporarily. (Well maybe I could be convinced to go back to pre-colonial Polynesia) One last thought, if everything became perfect on this earth, it might get boring. Then why come here? It was nice, even though the subject is serious, to interject a little humor now and then. Is that a guy thing? Rich (not verified)
Healing The Heart of Democracy - Parker Palmer, Part1 Healing The Heart of Democracy - Parker Palmer, Part 1 Mark, Thank you for yourMark, Thank you for your April interview with Parker Palmer. A Noetic Science circle in Madison today used your interview as the main topic... inspiring the best discussion and connection I've ever felt there. See below email to Parker for more. Carl L. Parker, I felt renewed hope for democracy today after a uniquely heart-centered sharing circle re your April interview on Northern Spirit Radio (at a Noetic Science circle in the Madison Friends Meeting House). By weaving your work with HeartMath, NVC, creative expression, stillness, breath, energy work, and intuition, I saw and felt the highest level of group coherence, connection, and co-creation in my eight years attending this group. Given the bizarre and polarized political climate in Wisconsin this past year (including the recent Sikh shootings and today's VP announcment), I wonder if We The People of America's Laboratory of Democracy are being primed to model a bold new experiment in democracy... based on the power and wisdom of the heart. Thank you for your inspiration, courage, and commitment in helping me renew mine. Carl Landsness (not verified)
