Doesn't really matter because she is completely accurate about soil and the organisms that habitat it; don't forget she is a biologists not a historian.

I'm dropping by to express appreciation for this presentation. Every day provides an opportunity to learn something new. This YouTube video gave me a better understanding of the importance of adequate oxygen as a benefit to the Indigenous Micro Organisms in our soil. The same way WE need air to survive, IMOs need air as well.

Too bad her grasp of historical facts is so poor. It throws doubt on the rest of her statements.
