Viidad : Are not ! That ’s my number !

David The Good : sure The Most Evil One could not have made a error … !

David The goodness : Everyone .

Viidad : Why ? I think , severely – what about people in apartments ? Why should they buy your book ?

David The commodity : First of all , because I ’m short and buying this bookhelps you give back while checking your privilege .   As aTeutonic - American and descendant of Roman slaves , you should want tosupport my work . Second of all , because the current substitution class is unlikely to last . This may appear on its surface like a playfulness small book about turning your crank into fertilizer ; however , it ’s in reality a survivalmanual if affair get ugly . If things ever get bad , you ’re not going tobe able-bodied to buy bag of mushroom compost or manure or fertilizer from the local garden marrow . They ’ll be closed and the supply lines will bebroken . You ’ll ask to snap up every mo of fertility you may in rescript tofeed your family . That means planting squash on top of entomb raccoons , learning to reclaim piddle and feces and compost them safely , turningfallen trees into piddle man-made lake of rotted wood beneath the soilbecause irrigation is ruffianly , etc .   This book takes you to the edges andhelps you harness the hertz of nature to bung yourself without externalinputs . If your flat complex becomes a warfare zone , you ’ll be(hopefully ) making your way of life out to the country … and you ’re function to need intellectual nourishment . Most composting books are simply about making bully little piles in a suburban backyard during a godsend clip . The gold rush time may not continue .

Viidad : What if it does ?

David The commodity : Then Compost Everything will just help you save lots of money rather than salvage your life .

Viidad : Is it dependable that your dream are haunt by an entity known as “ Dinky Worm ? ”
