Hi folks,

One of our close partners in our work on Resilient Communities is the
folks developing the Y2K Community Web Site.  We think it is emerging
as one of the best clearing houses on the web for what we're calling
the "common sense common ground" around Y2K.  Here's an announcement
they asked us to pass on to you:

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Good things have been happening at the Y2K Community Project
Web site. Been by lately? Check out the site at
http://www.y2kcommunity.org. And let us know what you think!

Y2K community organizing has really taken off in the US, and
we have lots of new content to inspire and support your
community efforts:

- Links to featured community Web sites: great sites that
can provide you with detailed information, news of other
communities, and examples of using the Web for community
organizing work.

- References on community organizing techniques and tools.

- Abstracts of significant national initiatives in support
of community organizing.

- Selected articles and links to significant writers on
human systems theory and analysis, to help you broaden and
deepen your understanding of Y2K--possibly humanity's most
complex global socio-technological crisis ever.

[For those of you who may not yet be taking Y2K very
seriously -- please don't give in to the temptation to
dismiss it as being merely about a few people's urges to
prophesy gloom and doom, or just about self-serving hype, or
preparedness, survival, or some millenarian fantasy. It's
more complicated and more important than all of these fringe
manifestations. The times are calling on each of us to
participate *with intention* in a period of significant
human transformation. Y2K, huge as it is, is only one of the
wavefronts of a much larger dynamic. I personally challenge
each of you (as I challenge myself) to continue to further
your education.]
