Your clearing in the jungle? Land use issues in Washtenaw County - "The 
Changing Landscape" (Copyright Ann Arbor News); A friend of Grex, HVCN, 
invites you to our site http://www.hvcn.org  go to Interactive Forums to
 discuss issues raised by the recent series of article in the AA News.
Do  you want to be the last homeowner in Washtenaw County? Do we want to
 keep (promote the conditions for survival) of all those smelly farms - 
after all they have animals there, some are very big animals! Maybe an 
active discussion about growth and dealing with the consequences of 
growth will help those who make the decisions we have to live with. When
 Jan and Steve tell us, we can link our conferences. Backtalk is on HVCN
 too, you know. Come on in, the water is warm and bubbly.

Jan, Steve. I am impressed with the implementation of Backtalk on Grex 
and the ability to link already built into the programs. This creates 
some very interesting possibilities.  There is lots of energy here on 
Grex, as usual.  There is, I think, also lots of energy in the wider 
community to tap and build upon.  You are doing some good work here.
