But I never go to daily kos so I'm appreciating the ET spin off!
You asked the question so:
# rediscovering rural development in the Arc of the Sun
Definitely yes. The US seems to be moving rapidly ahead in this, maybe because there is a lot of land around still; maybe because all y'all (see, I learn!)--but hey! You're in Australia, did I get that right? (And yeah with the qualifiers!) I think clearly successful projects with a "what we learned" attached are blueprints for other communities; and I want lots of wonderful people growing food and building renewable energy sources and (for me funky please!) houses that grow with the surrounding land rather than being brick houses plonked on top! Don't fight forces, use them R. Buckminster Fuller.
But you're right, this is important...!

You'll have to remind me of your preferred word; I'm a (very very) slow learner! Don't fight forces, use them R. Buckminster Fuller.
It relates, of course, with the "cultural barriers" diary :-) "What can I do, What can I write, Against the fall of Night". A.E. Housman
