this was and is about agriculture not farming- that was a concept you introduced but you didnt like because you could make an arguement to serve your own purposes- explain yourself - I never said you could farm a roo- that was you- I was speaking agriculturally ( because I dont believe in changing the course of a thread midway to suit my agenda- nice try though)

On your period FD- coming or going- arthur or martha- do carry on though

If you are clueless about what people are saying and haven't read the posts and or understood them then perhaps you shouldn't mention them or comment on them. Roll Eyes

One way or another, a sheep farmer corners his stock to feed them etc, and then herd them to shearing or slaughter.

The Abos used fire to achieve the same outcome.

We are talking about 'farming,' not 'hunting.' I say the Abos 'farmed' just like a mutton farmer.....'farmed,' using different methods.

Farked if I can see the value in this esoteric crap, so I am out of it.

No, they burnt the vegetation to encourage new growth that would bring animals to graze on it. They did not her and even today neither thay or we can herd kangaroo

as I see it the indigenous way required forethought and planning- we are talking about agriculture NOT farming (( FD tried to manipuate the story and shift goal posts)) - you anf he changed the story along with FD who tried to make it about farming- abs had a different ( far more suoerior way)) way but even academics conceded it was indeed agricultural practices now either you are lying- or they are all lying- you cant have it both ways- my money is on the side of science and researchers- they also farmed fish and made flour

Proves your delusion ... they trapped fish ... they ground native grass seeds.

They were never "farmers" or "agriculturalists".

They were a people who learned how to survive in a harsh in environment.

You or any others trying to put a fanciful twist on that is just stupid.

There we go now full circle back to FDs question about asking stupid questions .....

then expanding it to stupid theory that you have swallowed hook line & sinker.

I have to ask myself am I wasting my time? Roll Eyes

Maybe it explains why you don't get on with another board member ... you're both peas in a pod.

There was no agriculture ...what's insulting & absurd is your belief in non proven theory.
