		<description>This is a message board and we can&#039;t see each other&#039;s body language, etc, so you&#039;ll just have to be clearer.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;You sound like you have the Novermber nasties so I&#039;ll try to remember that before I chat with you again.</description>

		<description>I found it interesting to see how they do it in countries in which the economic environment of AG doesn&#039;t require advance technology to compete:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;For example, fruit and/or nut trees are spread out in rows much wider than ours --- maybe at least 20-30 feet apart.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;In between these trees, they grow wheat with an occasional small vegetable plots with mixed vegetables.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;What this does is provide an environment in which species can survive while naturally killing insects and disease. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;When you go to a local village, you buy noodles and vegetables grown locally --- you can taste the difference.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;We obviously can&#039;t do that and our system is better suited for our way of life and community structure.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;What I&#039;m suggesting is that we combine other means as described with advance growing techniques to develop a much better product that would be much healthier.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The left verses right politics combined with our economic constraints would make this too difficult.</description>
		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I found it interesting to see how they do it in countries in which the economic environment of AG doesn&#39;t require advance technology to compete:</p>
<p>For example, fruit and/or nut trees are spread out in rows much wider than ours &#8212; maybe at least 20-30 feet apart.</p>
<p>In between these trees, they grow wheat with an occasional small vegetable plots with mixed vegetables.</p>
<p>What this does is provide an environment in which species can survive while naturally killing insects and disease. </p>
<p>When you go to a local village, you buy noodles and vegetables grown locally &#8212; you can taste the difference.</p>
<p>We obviously can&#39;t do that and our system is better suited for our way of life and community structure.</p>
<p>What I&#39;m suggesting is that we combine other means as described with advance growing techniques to develop a much better product that would be much healthier.</p>

		<description>I&#039;ve been eating GM foods all my life, I used to often hunt on an experamental station as a kid, and snacked on the crops.  I&#039;m healthier than either of my parents were at my age, mostly because they had to cut back on salt and saturated fats while I was still a kid and I got used to it.  Nothing wrong with my sperm count either, my little swimmers can break through knots to fertilize that egg.   &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;It&#039;s the environuts who think the human population should be cut by half or more  who are against effective pesticides and GM crops.   They are the ones who are scaring ignorant people away from high yield crops they can grow locally, or the extra nourishment they provide.   Which will kill these people first, starvation or an abundance of supposedly tainted crops?   I&#039;m betting starvation.    They speed up the starvation proccess, by encourage marxism, like in Zimbabwe.  Breadbasket to famine and widespread disease in under a decade.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;If GM crops cause sterility, won&#039;t their developers be sued into oblivion?   They likely will be, anyway.</description>

		<description>Oh yea, communes, great idea.    Give this, provide that(with what?), ban those, this all sounds familiar.   We sure could have put that $980 million to better use though.</description>

		<description>What are you talking about?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I said the upper middle class pays more!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I live in an upper class neighborhood and have kept my boat in the Port of L.A. which has some of the poorest communities.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I go to (I forgot what is called) on Anahiem blvd and pay half as much for vegetables as I do at home.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Maybe you missed my point. I was explaining how competitive the ag business is and how small independent communities can&#039;t make it on bartering their crops --- they can&#039;t compete.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;We do that now with not much success as I was explaining to Linda. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Regarding who I want to help --- I don&#039;t determine the market of charity and I didn&#039;t consider your personal priorities.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;how many companies do your know that give to a charity for the heck of it or &quot;gee-- maybe we should give to pink rabbits cause there so cute&quot;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I remember somebody the nickname Lucy clueless -- now  I know why</description>
		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>What are you talking about?</p>
<p>I said the upper middle class pays more!</p>
<p>I live in an upper class neighborhood and have kept my boat in the Port of L.A. which has some of the poorest communities.</p>
<p>I go to (I forgot what is called) on Anahiem blvd and pay half as much for vegetables as I do at home.</p>
<p>Maybe you missed my point. I was explaining how competitive the ag business is and how small independent communities can&#39;t make it on bartering their crops &#8212; they can&#39;t compete.</p>
<p>We do that now with not much success as I was explaining to Linda. </p>
<p>Regarding who I want to help &#8212; I don&#39;t determine the market of charity and I didn&#39;t consider your personal priorities.</p>
<p>how many companies do your know that give to a charity for the heck of it or &#8220;gee&#8211; maybe we should give to pink rabbits cause there so cute&#8221;</p>
<p>I remember somebody the nickname Lucy clueless &#8212; now  I know why</p>

		<description>I have been traveling for years and I see my family every few months.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The men and women that serve our country have similar schedules.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;again you are making assumptions about my target market. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Maybe your circle of influence are soccer moms and maybe that is the bubble you live in --- I don&#039;t and I&#039;m not trying to be too sarcastic. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I have successfully plan these missions before so I know what I&#039;m doing. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I&#039;ll give you a few tips:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Don&#039;t bring construction materials or food and clothing across the border --- the Mexican immigration don&#039;t feel the love when you don&#039;t buy that stuff at their building supply yard and Costco.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;For now on bring your passport&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;They are not familiar with our framing techniques in Southern California -- they build their residences out of stone, concrete, and block for the most part. Have the locals do the masonry and will frame the roof and build out the rest. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Your sponsor needs to be charity such as a church that is well connected to the local government. --- things go a lot smoother. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Anything else you would like to know just ask</description>

<p>The men and women that serve our country have similar schedules.</p>
<p>again you are making assumptions about my target market. </p>
<p>Maybe your circle of influence are soccer moms and maybe that is the bubble you live in &#8212; I don&#39;t and I&#39;m not trying to be too sarcastic. </p>
<p>I have successfully plan these missions before so I know what I&#39;m doing. </p>
<p>I&#39;ll give you a few tips:</p>
<p>Don&#39;t bring construction materials or food and clothing across the border &#8212; the Mexican immigration don&#39;t feel the love when you don&#39;t buy that stuff at their building supply yard and Costco.</p>
<p>For now on bring your passport</p>
<p>They are not familiar with our framing techniques in Southern California &#8212; they build their residences out of stone, concrete, and block for the most part. Have the locals do the masonry and will frame the roof and build out the rest. </p>

		<description>Nobody here is denying that Hamas hates Jews and would prefer to take the land of Israel by means of killing Jews --- many of them seem to hate that much. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;What I choose to address is why. their version</description>

		<description>That&#039;s exactly what the Hamas Charter states.....just ask the Arab Christians that Hamas evicted because they were &#039;defying Islam.&#039;</description>

		<description>If you go to the poorest parts of L.A. and compare the cost of fresh vegetables to the &lt;br&gt;upper middle class, you will see, in some cases, a 100% mark-up.&quot;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;We will see a 30% to 50% mark-up in most cases because the owners of the markets, liquor stores and drug stores have to hire more security than in rich areas. Ask the owners of stores in both locations, the police and the local neighbors of each store. But poor Americans are not the ones you want to help.</description>

		<description>From what I gather from family, friends and neighbors recently unemployed, who can&#039;t pay all the bills, they have nothing against charity or trying to help Mexico but they don&#039;t want to leave home where they live with their families even if home is the local park.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;A lack of clean water and food is not the reason the Palestinians murder their children.....most have that and the $1.3 billion that W gave them in Feb, &#039;08 as a present for blowing up humans. They kill themselves and their children for the same reason as the upscale, upper-class al qaeda did 911=for Islam.</description>
