  1. listen, I got a bit screwed up looking into the problems we have in this world and the first thing i posted was just the opposite of what I meant. The message was purely for an awakening to the control. the message is one of love see this and all will be revealed, the message is a positive one, one of great potential and power if we use it with true wisdom and the heart. I cant apologize enough for the first post
  2. just ignore me im having one of those flip out moments! why I posted that was out of fear for I am an idiot at times!
  3. Steven do you believe the human race is sustainable in its current growth? do you think it right that we polute, drain the earths resources and cause an exponential increase in global tempratures and essentially make the habitat that nurtures us die, as it is right now. greed and ignorance, is our sin, permacultue and native styles like the indians, the aboriginals, they loved their lands and I mean loved. western lifestyles are going to cause the perish of the earth unless we change our ways overnight.
  4. You must believe that there has been something going down for some time, I know you have all felt it. well this is whats been going on, im actualy physicaly shaking watching this. your debts are your death sentence as is your lack of willingness to acknowledge the truth that is all around you. we have all been guilty of the worst ignorance and it was planned from day one. I give you this video because I love all of you, you will all think m mental, well so are you if you do not pay attention to what has been called the end game.

  5. I know you lot think im a nutter, but we cant let this one slide, GM is a plot to intellectually steal the rights to seed, and farms and therefore the land of farmers by stealth. In the states 140 farmers lost their farms because cross contamination of their ORGANIC crop meant the seed from that crop was lawfully theft! this is a criminal plot of stealth and deceit driven by a select few multi billion pound corporations, they have no care for biodiversity and the nature of life, this is just WRONG, on a natural level, a long term food security level and even on a human rights level. Dont let this happen or we will be paying a heavy heavy heavy price, they already own the health care industries, the petro chemicals and have government funding to persue an agenda that is elitist capitalism at the expense of the communities:thumbdown: Support your local organic farms, farmers markets and please help me stop this madness The Myth of a GMO-Free European Union - Gaia HealthGaia Health
  6. This will be my last post on any subject outside my diary, you can take horses to water but.... So Neo, blue pill? or the red one..... [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RwVHeHhiLfU&feature=share]EDUCATE YOURSELF: Codex Alimentarius - YouTube[/ame]
  7. that suggests you have some info that would make a fool of my previous comment, bring it on I say, seems were all about to have a lesson that can only be a positive.
  8. thinking of anyone in particular Jonny? This is the sort of subtle dig that just proves exactly what i say about forums. get your sample of glen, I will refund you the fee if im wrong
  9. nice! i understand those fish, not the sharks of course put up a good account of themselves.
  10. I accept the limitations on my input exposed, and shall retreat with my head in shame for my appalling lack of relevance to this particular case. I wont accept the deathly spiral scenario suggested by a reduction however, no one has EVER done a study into the real effects of reduction on trees and certainly not one that accounts for the variables, or the undeniable truth that is offered in the vastly different reaction of trees in the working scenario. albeit that side is anecdotal. also the argument of the axiom of uniform stress being impaired is inherently flawed as for some years decades in fact the stress imposed on the structure is hugley reduced, as is the energy required to maintain it that is a large point and contribution to the reduction theory, reduction of MECHANICAL loading!
  11. agree here with David, Perenniporia 99% likely but a section would reveal the potential for an alternative ident that of rigidiporus ulmarius, though exceedingly unlikely.
  12. wasnt you moaning recently about not doing what you wanted to do?
  13. so you employed somebody to run a team with no industry experience? Did you employ him because of his training i.e tech cert with managment portion?
  14. sorting out some of the inaccuracy in Chalara headlines BBC Radio 4 - More or Less, Ash Dieback and Fergie-Time
  15. if only one book to purchase? mmmm lonsdales principals probably, maybe tied in with the diagnosis of ill health in trees same series
  16. redundant or not still get those that dont know started! just sent him a mail with some images of bats and roosts, going to go over the decay stuff now and offer some insights. Missing out on the browns.
  17. Many many thanks for this post Aether, Im having a quick scan at the moment and this is a truly awesome bit of work, really thorough and extensive look t the subject. theres already a few things that need a bit of further discussion along the decay lines but loving the way he has broken down the walls and illustrated it. essential reading material, and shall be printing these off for the lads at work. you can tell this guy really knows his subject and is really into the technical side of it, havent gotten this excited over a read in ages!
  18. nice one, shall have a good look into this.
  19. Now that has to take some balls! Diving with great whites, respect!
  20. I must admit the old salt version was my prefered choice, but maybe thats just cos thats what I grew up using? I prefer the saw cut ito cambium and cap, I usualy leave the stump 1 inch higher than prefered, then slice that of thin, cut into the cambum with a saw and re cap with the slice which of course is a perfect fit, custom made for the stump and biodegradable. I dont like Glyphosate being used though.
  21. no matter how hard we try we all project our own agendas on our children, thats kinda the point here isnt it. the question he asks is "what do YOU WANT to do, without ever putting the ideas in. A man who is an avid supporter might say "do you want to be a footballer?"
  22. good post Ian, even tweeted the video link
  23. Seems they still recommend surrounding trees be felled and destroyed to contain an outbreak of Chalara fraxinea, I really dont think this is wise, we shouldnt be taking out trees that may potentialy survive http://www.treeworks.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/Disposal-of-infected-trees-plantsNov-2012v2.pdf
  24. I wish I had given it more thought when i was twenty, should have been ready for it (qualified and fully up on all aspects) by 35, im still unqualified at 40, but reckon ive got ten years to sort it out. a foreman should be avery able and experienced guy IMO, not some 30 year old whos barely gotout of short trousers, you need to have seen it all. Im only just starting to grow up enough for such a post! JUST
