Looking for something to do tomorrow afternoon? This could be your last chance to see the thought-provoking documentary No Impact Man that I just learned is closing this week! Since it's a great movie for this group to discuss (the Beaven family lived for a year using only human-powered transportation), I thought I'd put it out there to see if anyone can attend, despite the short notice. I will be waiting outside the theater at 1:45.

Ticket prices are: CHILD $5.50, SENIOR $6.50, ADULT $7.00.

Synopsis:
Author Colin Beavan, in research for his new book, began the No Impact Project in November 2006. A newly self-proclaimed environmentalist who could no longer avoid pointing the finger at himself, Colin leaves behind his liberal complacency for a vow to make as little environmental impact as possible for one year. No more automated transportation, no more electricity, no more non-local food, no more material consumption… no problem. That is, until his espresso-guzzling, retail-worshipping wife Michelle and their two year-old daughter are dragged into the fray. Laura Gabbert and Justin Schein’s film provides a front row seat into the familial strains and strengthened bonds that result from Colin’s and Michelle’s struggle with this radical lifestyle change.

See you there!

Hi everyone,
Let's have our first meetup! One of our members, Paul, suggested this location since it's a remodeled gas station that's now a coffee house -- perfect for us.

Our agenda will be simple:
- Meet each other.
- Discuss common interest in car-free (or car-lite) living.

Hope you can make it!
