Maybe we could meet this Weds and then decide on a better time? A few of us can come at least.

I'm so sorry I can't attend. Bill McKibben is speaking at Eckerd College that evening.

I do suggest we find another way to communicate. I'm overwhelmed with email and when I have to come to this site and sign in, it often gets postponed. Does anyone else have trouble with it?

I'd love that if I weren't still caretaking, but I'll have to leave from Tampa. Perhaps, however, it could be a good first meeting/carpool event for us all. I am going with an old friend form St. Pete that I have not seen since I've been in Tampa, so my flexibility isn't great, unfortunately.

OK, can you tell me when and where the event is?  Can we schedule the transition meeting for Thurs, 13 Oct? Or the following week, any day but Weds (for me)?

Fox Hall at Eckerd College (on Pinelelas Bayway). 7:30 pm. I have two conflicts on the 13th.,   Still struggling with that dilemma (both are prior commitments, one of which was rescheduled).

Should I assume that there is no meeting tomorrow because many are going to the McKibben talk?  I'm presently not available Oct. 19 or Oct. 21 through 23.  I am presently available any other evening between now and Oct. 21 for a meeting.

Cory I have a projector we can show movies anywhere.  I had wanted to start showing documentary films outside with it but the summer weather/bugs have been prohibiting. 

I agree with you on having different events.  People want to get involved.  Things get stale if you dont shake it up a bit.

 

 I've been donating a lot of my time to the occupy movements the last few weeks.  Maybe we can have a sign making event or put together an information table to put up at rallies?  Something that would show positive solutions.

Or possibly cook the protesters a hot meal and bring it to them in crock pots?

Met with Christina and Ben Bellamy this weekend. They are interested in joining this group. So is Robert Kostuck.

 

If we truly want to organize a clearwater group, I strongly suggest we start a google list so we can get emails. I am having problems keeping up with the discussions here, and if I do, I know others will as well. 

This has stretched out interminably without success, so in the meantime I keep working with existing groups. Time is short. We need to get cracking! :) 

What if those who are able met this Wednesday @ 8:00, immediately after Cory's Green Business Mixer at 647 Cleveland Street in downtown Clearwater. If we all put this out to our friends in and around clearwater, we could at least begin getting to know each other. We might even pick up a few people from that group.

I could attend a meeting after Cory's mixer this Wed.  But I think we need to check with the venue to make sure this is OK, unless we plan to meet somewhere else nearby.

I think we would need to meet at Starbucks downtown - the venue will be closed right after the mixer and Starbucks may be the only place open after 9 PM, not sure. There's also a health food store down there, a great Thai place, and Tony's Pizza....

But I know Starbucks is open until 11 or something.
