Biodynamics

Farm1 wrote: I haven't seen any post where you mentioned similarities. I've seen one post where you made an erroneous statement but none where you mentioned any specific similarities. Erroneous statement! Listen to you. Who do you think you are? You clearly don't want to admit it but you DID make erroneous statements. And you have been told this by 3 people. Biodynamics is based on the work of Steiner: Permaculture is not. And since you ask (in what many people would consider to be an offensive manner) "who I think I am", then I'll tell you that I think, and know, that I am someone who knows the difference between Biodynamics and Permaculture. Both have an organic focus but Permaculture is not based on the work of Steiner and nor do Permaculturalists rely on the various Formula 500-508 and other techniques that the Biodynamics adherants do. You confuse reading books with actually doing something. I thought that explaining to you in a manner that would enable you to check on what I say might help you to clear up your misunderstanding. I can see now that I was wrong to try to give you facts. You have a particular view and being given the facts and thus being able to check them doesn't appear to matter to you. I've read you on a few forums, notably alt.permaculture a long while ago - I'm sure you are devoted to what you're doing, but please do drop the aggression or I'm not bothering replying to you. I have also read you here. I've also read you when you very nastily chose to stalk Janet into another ng where she posted. You have acted offensively, aggressively and very nastily in other places. A real case of pot, kettle black. Read my second post in this thread - you will then understand where I'm coming from. Also lets mention that you are a great pal of Janet and you will do all you can to be abusive to me. Janet and I have posted in a number of differing ngs for years. I've found her to be straight down the line. No dissembling or lying. If I recall correctly, you were treated aggressively and abusively by all decent and normal residents of that other newsgroup when you deliberately and nastily chose to stalk Janet. I consider it ill manners at the very least to stalk anyone either in the flesh or by way of the internet. Such behaviour deserves a certain amount of aggression in response as that is the only mechanism open in this la-la land of the ether. It's the only form of moderation of appalling behaviour that is available. You made the choice to stalk someone and got what you deserve. I have made a mistake with a word - if you were that interested you will have forgiven me. But you are more interested with having a conflict with me. You didn't merely make a mistake with a word. You made erroneous statements. You may not have understood or been confused but if given facts in a response and you can then check those facts for yourself and you see this as aggression, then so be it. Nope. I have "Permaculture One" Yes, you have a couple of books and I have many projects under my belt, lots of fantastic contacts with beautiful people across Europe and a permaculture certificate. When you can talk about what *you* have done, and what *you* have experienced rather than quote from your books and references, then I'll talk with you. Well that excuse saves you from having to check your understanding of the topic but it doesn't enhance your reputation for being accurate or correct. |

Yes, and who are these 3 people but the same ones who go on at me at every opportunity? Is it a crime to say the wrong word? I have said that I shouldn't have used the word 'based'. Why do you persist on going on and on about it? Even Uncle pointed out that I had put the wrong word. What do you want me to say? Both have an organic focus but Yes, and that was solely my point. I had also said this to you but you said you didn't see my post. But it seems that you now have. So perhaps you ought to apologise? Permaculture is not based on the work of Steiner and nor do Permaculturalists rely on the various Formula 500-508 and other techniques that the Biodynamics adherants do. No they don't indeed. I have however pointed out to other similarities. The work I did in the permaculture trust in Middlewood Lancaster run a Steiner school since the 60s. This I have seen and it is not the first time that I see Steiner being close to permaculture and biodynamics - because of the ecological similaries. I'm young and excited about all this - and when it comes up I get involved. In France we call biodynamics 'ecology' and we call permaculture 'ecology' because at the root of it all that's what it is and these was my first words in my first post on this thread. I thought that explaining to you in a manner that would enable you to check on what I say might help you to clear up your misunderstanding. Thank you for 'helping me clear up my understanding'. I don't feel that I don't understand. Quoting book's references when I am discussing actual experiences in permaculture trust, projects and events is not 'helping me' but rather is trying to undermind once again what I know and experience. But thanks again. I have also read you here. I've also read you when you very nastily chose to stalk Janet into another ng where she posted. Thank you. This is very much what I wanted you to come to it. You are having a go at me precisely because of this and not because of the subject at hand. I knew that you had ulterior motives. It was also pointed out to you on the other ng that if people resorts to having to 'stalk' another poster it's because they are angry. You can go back to your books now. |

Why do you persist on going on and on about it? Sorry but that excuse doesn't wash. After saying that you shouldn't have used the word "based" you then said you should have said "influenced" by Steiner and Steiner was not an influence. Odum was. P.A. Yeomans was also and Ken Kern. Even Uncle pointed out that I had put the wrong word. What do you want me to say? I would like you to stop blaming, or dragging in, everyone but yourself. Be responsible for what you write: be accurate and don't lie to excuse yourself. Both have an organic focus but Yes, and that was solely my point. I had also said this to you but you said you didn't see my post. But it seems that you now have. So perhaps you ought to apologise? You never "said" any such thing! You have never even mentioned the word "organic" in this thread. Perhaps you should apologise for continually changing your story? Permaculture is not based on the work of Steiner and nor do Permaculturalists rely on the various Formula 500-508 and other techniques that the Biodynamics adherants do. No they don't indeed. I have however pointed out to other similarities. The work I did in the permaculture trust in Middlewood Lancaster run a Steiner school since the 60s.

In France we call biodynamics 'ecology' and we call permaculture 'ecology' because at the root of it all that's what it is and these was my first words in my first post on this thread. I can understand you being young and excited about something but that does not excuse a lack of accuracy when called to account for making wrong statements and continuing to compound on those wrong statements. I thought that explaining to you in a manner that would enable you to check on what I say might help you to clear up your misunderstanding. Thank you for 'helping me clear up my understanding'. I don't feel that I don't understand. Quoting book's references when I am discussing actual experiences in permaculture trust, projects and events is not 'helping me' That's a pity. If you actually went away and did some research then you might sound like you know what you are talking about. At the moment you sound like you haven't a clue. I have also read you here. I've also read you when you very nastily chose to stalk Janet into another ng where she posted. Thank you. This is very much what I wanted you to come to it. You are having a go at me precisely because of this and not because of the subject at hand. I knew that you had ulterior motives. My ulterior motive and why I am having a "go" at you, is that you are wrong on this subject and keep making wrong statements but worst of all, you then make up lies to excuse your comments. You can't say that you chose to use the wrong word in choosing "based" on Steiner, when you simply changed the word to "influenced" by Steiner. Steiner isn't part of the "base" or "influence" on Permaculture. It was also pointed out to you on the other ng that if people resorts to having to 'stalk' another poster it's because they are angry. If you are/were angry at Janet then that is your problem and you should have taken it up with her in whichever forum where you first got angry. Other readers on the forum can act as arbiters and how they react to your anger might just let you know if your anger is reasonable or if you are merely being a pillock. Going stalking to another forum where there is already an established community is not aceptable for a number of reasons. You got jumped on and deservedly so and no doubt that just fed your anger. You can go back to your books now. Pity you don't appreciate books. They may be able to teach you something, but I'm not confident of that. |
