DESCRIPTION:SF Bay Area Community Exchange Meeting\nSunday, March 1, 2009\n6:00pm - 
 8:00pm\nSpud's Pizza (parlor meeting room)\n3290 Adeline St (~3 blocks 
 north of Ashby BART)\nBerkeley, CA\n\nThis is the second meeting of a group 
 of enthusiastic and talented community activists (40 strong so far) who are 
 starting a local currency and/or bartering network in order to facilitate a 
 more just and sustainable local economy. Give a holler if you need help 
 with getting to the meeting. The meetings will likely alternate between SF 
 and East Bay biweekly. If you are interested, subscribe to 
 sfbacommunityexchange-subscribe@yahoogroups.com or jump on our "ning" 
 discussion group at http://bayareacommunityexchange.ning.com/ . Contact 
 Heather at madredecleo@yahoo.com for more info.\n\nReasons for developing a 
 local means of exchange:\n-the collapsing economy and the associated rise 
 of poverty\n-better pay equity and fuller employment\n-development of 
 stronger community relations\n-more environmentally sound production of 
 goods and reduced energy use for distribution\n-less money going to the 
 government's wars\n-supports local workers and withdraws support for 
 exploitation of workers abroad\n-to enjoy life more, less time working at a 
 desk job and more time gardening, taking care of family, etc.\n-reflection 
 of community values in and community control over economic system\n-greater 
 self and community sufficiency as peak oil becomes a challenge...\n
