Man, wish I could make it, but can't. Too many things going on!
Chuck
Good to hear. Of course...I won't be able to make it but that's nothing new. Everything is covered including a projector?
Chuck
Happy to help get the word out via my Facebook and LinkedIn network. And also will pitch in on refreshments.
I won't be able to make it that night...sorry. I am taking the Transition Training the following weekend though.

Here's an interesting article that posits that every increase in efficiency generates an increase in demand for the resource, paradoxically counteracting the increase in efficiency.
I am out of town for the next two weeks, and for me, Wednesday or Thursday are best. Monday and Tuesday don't work. I have the Transition Handbook (finally) and will read through it. Once I'm done with that then I'll have a better idea of how I want…

Jeanne said… - Hi Chuck, welcome. Exploring is a good place to be. There is a lot going on. Worm wrangling is really coming on strong. A group of master gardeners here in SLO had a workshop and about 100 people showed up. So you certainly have something to offer with your expertise. Our next episode on Hole in the Fence has a segment on worm bins. Maybe you could stop by the blog and tell us what to do about fruit flies in the worm bins when it goes up in about a week. Have fun and welcome.

Judith Newton said… - Welcome, Chuck! Thanks for joining in.
I know of two members in Silicon Valley to point you to: Victoria and David Herron. They both attended Training for Transition in December, and David started the Silicon Valley group here. Oh and I just noticed that Chris Prudhomme is in San Jose, too.
Hope this helps!
