Wish folks would settle on one name, but anyway, still VERY cool!

Learned a new word yesterday (Thanks to Extension specialist Sarah Kaatz's presentation yesterday ):
"Aquaponics".
(Symbiotic cultivation of plants and aquatic animals in a recirculating environment.)
If you are of a similar vintage to me, you saw this in the NASA Life Support Division stuff in the 1970's, and the New Alchemist Society. Then of course, rising out of both of those, John & Nancy Todd's "Living Machines". Google away when you have time. :)
Any way, an article:

I intend to post some links about this in the future.
