Robert!

YOU HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO EVIDENCE TO SUPPORT YOUR ASSERTION THAT AMAZONIAN PEOPLE MADE ALL OF THE TERRA PRETA FROM CORN STOVER 2500 YEARS AGO!  WOULD YOU PLEASE QUIT STATING THIS AS FACT?

  Subject: [Terrapreta] Terra preta postings on arclein blog


  I thought that I would work through the 250 message
  backlog from this group sitting in my inbox this
  weekend.  A daunting task.  However I am pleased to
  see the extensive sharing of information on forests
  taking place.  I expect that I will be able to quote
  some of this on my Blog.

  I also sat down and developed a list of my terra preta
  related postings, not all reposted to this group and
  posted that on my blog.  I am including a list here
  for you to peruse.  My advice is to start at the
  beginning to the description of the corn stack method
  of indigenous production and then jump to the end and
  work backward.

  I see no realistic way to economically produce terra
  preta without resorting to a variation of the original
  production method.  Concern was raised about the
  production of methane which I see as misplaced.  In
  fact, the methane will likely provide the majority of
  the heat in the combustion process, but this needs to
  be properly field tested.

  Here you go.  While you are at it bookmark my site or
  subscribe as I post daily on a range of related
  subjects. Even better give me stuff to comment on.
