h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Hi there Rod

I've been allocated your Entry on Permaculture to sub for the Edited Guide.

Here is what I've got for you so far; A30652481

Let me know if you like what I've done, or if you've got more you want added, or things you want removed, before I send it back to the Editors for inclusion in the Edited Guide soon

Matt

Hi, Uncle Matt. Haven't you've done a lot of my research!

A couple of things under 3 guises... (a bilogy in 3 parts or a trilogy in two?)

1. Header "What Permaculture Is" para 3, sentence 1: "plant propogation" has changed the meaning, please move it (see 3 below) and revert to "food production" in this position.

2. Header "Getting Started", bullet 2 sentence 1, please change to "A policy of 'companion planting' reduces the effects of insect attack."


"plant propogation" above could usefully go under
3. Header "Getting Started", bullet 2, as in "...Mixed, rather than single-crop, planting ... bushier plants, in the same beds, making suitable arrangements for timing their propagation."

Thanks for your efforts

Rod

I've done that Rod, with a few changes to the phrasing. See what you think now

Matt

Uncle Matt, Thanks.

Header "What Permaculture Is", para 2, sentence 2 : "Involved in trying to persuade people of this, he came to realise that protests weren't going to work in the short time..." -> '...in the short term...', please.

Pause here for the mo - I've reached "Further Along"

Back soon, I hope

R

Back - and done. That's it, I reckon.

Thank you for your work, Matt.

No problem, all sorted now

I'll send it back at the end of the week once I've had a final look through

Matt
