Bill Sharp commented on Bill Sharp's group 'Transition Towns State College'
"TTSC had a great public forum on the subject of Marcellus shale. Sixty people, two great presenters and clearly positive test of the forum concept. We will be starting workshops on The Transition Companion in November."

In Transition

One word review for the film “In Transition” that has been available these two short days: Bravo!
I wish we do not have to wait six months for the DVD. After watching the film three times I see it as one of the most natural and compelling pitches of the Transition movement. It has a great draw potential, easy to run, attractive and very thought provoking.

Bill,

Yes, you Smart Talk appearance was great. I'm new to the group and not sure where I post comments yet. But I have been trying to see if this group can have a "meet up" at the PASA conference in Feb?

Hi Bill - I'm involved in Transition through Susan Norris, a friend of mine, who attended the training at Genessee.  Recently, however, we are distracted with the Marcellous Shale issue and are attending meetings of Gas Truth and Clear Water Action.  Working on a rally at the inauguration on Jan 18.   Susan has a really good 15-minute presentation about Transition.  Are you being interviewed on Smart Talk??   If you want to talk with Susan, let me know.  - Cheers,Rachel

Good luck with your new group. Thanks for the HB wish. Took my son to a PA Home Performance contractor certification course today at the local Community College.

I hope to see this T.US ning venue become as rich and fertile as the Coordinators Hub was. I miss hearing from some old hands there like Sarah Smith, Shelby, and others.

It's good to be alive at this moment in history and be in touch with so many talented and committed activists.
