At 11:56am on June 6, 2009, Jen Mazer said…: Hi Ann,
I notice you are coordinator of the local food security list. I left (now that I think about it) a rather nasty comment about neighbors misunderstanding.
If these neighbors ever join this I don't want them to see this comment.
Is it possible for you to delete it? Sorry to bother...

At 5:08pm on December 1, 2008, Matt Irwin said…: Thanks for the advice. I've watched End of Suburbia myself on Netflix, but will definitely try to get people together to view it as a group.

At 5:05pm on December 1, 2008, Les Squires said…: Let us know what we can do to help you make that decision....

At 2:07pm on December 1, 2008, Les Squires said…: Welcome Ann! Great to see you here on Transition U.S. "... For 40 years I have been involved in Sustainability studies and living the lifestyle in many ways - have been "waiting" for this movement to appear!!!" -- We're thrilled to have the benefit of your 40 year and your "waiting".

You're one of the first to see a new US Transition Map we rolled out this weekend. As this page develops, it will become a map of U.S. and World Transition resources. All 50 states are now active. Many state sites are brand new! Go to CALIFORNIA and sign in. Invite others. Enter some of your local events. Start Discussions. Make Transition! Have fun!

I recently shared you visioning process from RLNC a couple of years ago (the well) with folks in Sandpoint, Idaho, who were launching their community visioning process--and they adopted your process. I think of you often, and hope to connect with you sometime soon. Blessings, Michael

Welcome to Transition US. Sounds like you've been very engaged with the shift for a while. Thank you!

Have you thought about joining Transition California? Someone has set up a WELL group there, too.

cheers,
Judith
