It would be super if you'd consider adding a link to your index in our registry of organizations, products, services, Twitterers, Facebooks, Meetups, etc. supporting Transition and Sustainability -- http://transitionus.ning.com/groups/group/new.

- Hi Laird,
Love your reading list! I am just outside Annapolis off Central Avenue.
Bowie is not far. I am going to a T4T training hosted by Ecolocity DC.
Are you going? Anyway delighted to see somebody nearby is also aware of the predicament and Transition solutions. If you want to build it, they will come. You may be aware of the Greenbelt Transition group already. We also have a possible TT forerunner happening at Meetup if you want to check into it. It is focuses on the economics storm arriving now, with peak oil & climate storms soon to follow .
