A lurker comment

My plea for comments has paid dividends already. Here is a fresh comment sent to me from the tips form on the right. Note that the commenter likes the volunteer posts; again, those are by Rick Bella of America's Second Harvest, our guest blogger. Thanks for the input.


Tom: The proposed change to the food irradiation label sounds like an excellent idea. Kind of believe anything with the word radiation is likely a dud, so just to get the ball rolling, how about "High Energy Pasteurization"? Re-designing the logo (if any required) could be as important. Of course, don't eat poop even if it is "high energy pasteurized". Enjoyed your volunteering posts. Having volunteered as a kind of agribusiness education consultant in Guatemala and felt both deeply satisfied as well as incredibly frustrated about the experience. In retrospect, sometimes is better to just get out of the way and let the local motivated experts (i.e. entrepreneurs) work their magic. I would like to suggest taking a look/blog at organizations like Kiva. http://www.kiva.org/ Thank you for the time an effort you invest in your excellent blog, Regards, Lurker
