well, i'm new here right. but i've been on an off the internet and various forums since 1995
and i swore myself off chatrooms for a long time because none of them were any use and just provided a forum for people to have pointless arguments that quickly degenerate into flaming and abuse.
i originally posted here a few weeks ago to find out about preparing vegetable fibres for spinning. i could have been asking about fire making, or what kind of tent to get, or thow to sharpen a knife. the point is that i was rapidly responded with many many helpful people sharing their knowledge freely. and i'm sure whatever i had asked how to do i would have got the same response.
so i stayed, and i like it here.
that's what this forum is for, learning new skills and sharing our shared love of the natural world. i don't care whether you're an anarchist, socialist, labour voter or tory, if you can appreciate the beauty of a temperate forest in spring and understand the world is to be experienced, loved and protected then you're alright by me.*
politics is meaningless next to the beauty of existence
