			<description><![CDATA[Hello All:<br />
Well, I guess it's up to me to officially open up this forum, and invite each of you to start or join in a conversation about sustainable agriculture.<br />
<br />
I would first like to state that I feel totally unprepared to moderate such a forum, because I have no academic knowledge of agriculture.   I just happen to be the one who built, designed, and deployed all components of the ASAN website.<br />
<br />
Professionally speaking, I have dedicated the better part of my life as a public school educator, public servant, and entrepreneur.  So, I am very much out of my league.  But, until a more worthy volunteer comes along, I guess I'm it.  <br />
<br />
Let me be the first to invite you to make the greatest use possible of these forums, and re-double the efforts to promote sustainable agriculture in Alabama and throughout the nation.  <br />
<br />
Let me also be the first to invite anyone who has the interest to serve as a moderator over some of these boards, or if there is no topic here that interests you, start one, and moderate it.   <br />
<br />
Think about it... it's a great way to promote the website, your issues, or just to advocate for a very noble cause.]]></description>
