You know it's funny, many "here" have claimed that our soils are different from everywhere else and can't be no-tilled, or, say if we had 3 feet of topsoil like out west we could no-till too!!  It's all relative and it's all a point of perspective.  Luckily we have many willing to try and are proving that no-till can be done "here".

It reminds me of the saying "If a farmer thinks it will work or it won't work, he's right!"
