I'm new to the form, but have been a lurker for awhile, however, I have listened to ALL of Paul's Podcasts. I think "Farm" and "Permaculture" are looked at here as oxymorons. Paul seems to not like anything remotely associated with "human intervention". I agree with his "don't make nature your bitch" philosophy. I just wish that 10 years ago, when I bought a "food forest" in the middle of my city, I had known about Paul. It took me six months, but I was able to destroy that forest and now I've spent the last couple of years trying to get it back. Believe me, that takes longer than you would think. Of course I blame Paul, he should have started his world domination empire sooner.
