[permaculture-oceania] Upland rice seed source?

[R Freeman]

Hello John,

Seeing your name pop up here takes me back a few years to a camp in
Giblett forest in the southwest of WA. You won't remember me, I'm
sure, but I remember you. I also remember a tape of music that I had
with a collection of fun songs. The only ones I recall now are
'subvert the dominant paradigm' and 'we are animals'.
So...I went looking on the web to see if RIC was still selling them.
But the only page I could find
(http://www.rainforestinfo.org.au/merch.htm) didn't go anywhere.

SO...do you still sell that tape (CD would be better) with those songs
on? I'd love to hear them all again, and revive that feeling of 10
years ago.

**PS Robyn Williamson robinet at aapt.net.au says send her your address
and she will send a packet of upland rice. I'm not sure if she wants
money or not. I'm sure you'll have greater success up there than I
will down here in chilly Bridgetown.

cheers,
Robert
