No worries on the commune--and they'll be
weaving organic hemp instead of cotton yarn
anyway;-) But I suppose they wont give me
access to an MD with an ultrasound--I guess I
will stay in the city for now...

And let us be realistic...demand for organic
products in the US is not going to change the
fact that China and Africa are probably going
to have to go GMO...
Organic products are a luxury much of the
world cannot afford.
