Hi Steven,

Welcome to the Transition Massachusetts Ning site. Your dual residence in VT and MA is now complete with memberships on both states' Transition sites. I hope you can share your Permaculture and Passivehouse experience with MA members, tool

I have posted instructions about how to most easily follow discussions on the Forum. You can find that post in the Forum area, titled "Let's Strengthen our Transition Massachusetts community." Or here is the full URL: http://transitionmassachusetts.ning.com/forum/topics/lets-strengthen-our-transition

Implementing the simple changes described will make it easier to stay connected with developing conversations about these critical issues.

I encourage you also to join the Boston Area Transition Network group, to help nurture initiatives in communities all around Boston.

Don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or concerns.

Conrad
