What up Jules? I had no clue you read these forums! thinking of living car free? hell i didnt even know you biked much! you should rally the green house boys and bring em down to DC for a visit.

But seriously, to the rest of you, the fact that I post anonymously on a forum and my second cousin sees my post, identifies me and pipes in just goes to prove the small world of the Mennonites. When we meet new mennonites we jokingly say that were "playing the mennonite game" where you figure out who their related to and where there from, and 9 times out of 10, you can make some connection through friends or relatives.

Also, Roody mentioned an excellent book a few pages back. DEEP ECONOMY by Bill Mckibben is an excellent book! I can gaurantee you we wouldnt be in this economic crisis if our financial leaders lead based on the principles of that book.
