We are thinking of pushing this tomorrow as part of earth day stuff and earth week stuff.

Andres is adding some finishing touches.

Big difference between mobile vs computer (computer much better). And with both, when I get to the end, I'm a little lost as to what I'm getting/not getting between the Earth Design Combo and the Earthworks pack. Very clear on the Natural Swimming Pools front.

Seeing them side by side on the computer, I *think* the Design Combo gets me 'everything' (it's the most expensive), and water and soil coming together make green things. But the size of the Green choice is smaller than the Earthworks pack and has fewer words.

The cast lineup is fantastic

Thanks for the feedback Adam, optimizing :)

Looking great to me on both mobile and desktop! (the water and earth checkmarks really nail it in my humble opinion)

On my laptop with smallish screen I keep the default view set to 133%, to make text more legible. I rarely notice problems, but Permies.com in general  has a few minor ones. Forum pages sometimes cut off a word on the right edge until I scroll over once. I haven't found that to be annoying enough to mention here. I'm guessing that magnification is why the earthworks page renders for me with this font problem:

Are both Paul's DVD set and the natural swimming pond book available for sale?
