Comments
(should we move the initial bulk of the conversation from Village Pump to here?)
- I think we should only move succint pertinent pieces to the pros and cons above. --Lonny 16:04, 24 September 2006 (PDT)
After seeing some of the commentary at http://www.blogschmog.net/blog/?p=471#comments, I was struck by a flash of genius (at least I thought so): VillagePump.org. The domain is available. Rather similar to VillageEarth.org. Come to think of it, I like the VillageEarth name as well. If others like it, maybe that's a carrot to lobby for coalescence with that group? --Curtbeckmann 15:45, 24 September 2006 (PDT)
