Hi True- The thing is, Orson Wells had no idea a panic would ensue as a result of his reading of War of the Worlds. That was a happy (??) accident. I do like the idea of organizing some sort of art collective "happening" online, as you describe. My taste is more about excitement, thrall, inspiration, not so much panic.

Look forward to my tee shirt! :) Mary Anne

Thanks Kristin and Christine. We are having a salon/dinner at the end. I will bring dishes to eat on. Might even be better. Plus, I'll have a brand new passport!

If you can get Keith Olberman to take it a little more seriously, you would really be doing a service to humanity. Why are old school journalists such laggers?? He gave Twitter the Worst Person Award last night. geez. ps- Hugh has more foresight than most.

You know what I love about this planet and this species? We can all do whatever we want, when ever we want how ever we want. i love Seth's blog with or wiht out comments. he stared by breaking the rules and that was one of them. You go right ahead and skip the blog with no comments. Tough to comment here on ablog you don't read. oops, don't get mad. ;) ps- what's the grand and where can I test it? Oh, and where do you blog? oh wait, just looked and not interested. Sorry. (I don't smoke pot)

This is a great article and wicked true and important to read and grok. I love Seth Godin, I read his blog everyday and have been for years. I like him, I trust him, but I don't always agree with him. Thank god. Through social media, in fact, I am learning to trust my own voice more and more. Respecting knowledge holders is important. Finding your own true voice and being kind are essential to working in this new territory. Hold on, maybe that behavior is important everywhere??? ;) ps- the Dalai Lama says that once you know the rules, then breaking them is appropriate. or not

Hi Michele- These are actually slip cast. The originals are made on the wheel and then I turn them into plaster molds. Lovely method for production.

Re: The 10% Shift: Buy 10% Local And The Impact Is Huge

madpotter — Thu, 19 Feb 2009 14:21:14 -0000

as in push that baby out! this IS the new reality. I have heard the ratio quoted as 1:3 locally vs. 1:9 for a national chain. 3 times more bang for your buck in a local economy. See you at SXSW, per chance??

Thank you for this, Stowe. Yes indeed it is a fact that needs action, now. Siple, too! And your neighbors will love you for it! :)

Thank you, Stowe and hello Michael! Good to see this talked about in ever widening circles. Berkshares http://www.berkshares.org is using a local scrip I think more as a learning tool than as an end in itself. Learning to think about money as a tool for local economic development, sustainability at its core. I look forward to see your ideas in their mature form Michael. Transferring $$/value on cell phones might resonate with what you've been working on.

Cheers!

I appreciate your brain and profession. Look forward to your thinking/collective thinking on this topic. Do have to say, followed your link from your Twitter stream, works for me, will play a role. :)

I think we are past the "medium is the message" era and it is time to begin
to figure how to be on the planet together, in a clean, efficient
environment that makes room for all reasonable ways of living. That is the
focus of future think/future speak. Techno geekiness has its place but won't
dominate the conversation just like engineers don't tend to dominate
conversations of broadly generalized topics. More will be revealed. Hard to
predict but fun to try! Especially of you are right!

Thanks, Daniel! Yes, it is well worth the power outages, although those are kind of freeky.

My husband the science writer uses mojo to represent the energetics you describe in partial oblivion to prana, shakti, chi and other eastern references to the subtle body. Nice to find your new blog, Gregory, Hope you stick with this one. :)
