Dolomite will alter the pH much more slowly than traditional
lime applications, and much-Much-MUCH! more slowly than
Sir Gareth's body-disposal method.  The good news is it leaches
out of the ground slower, so it remains to combat the acidity 
longer.  The bad news is it may be harder to nail an exact pH level.
