...again, just responding to bits and not the whole thing to avoid
terminal fragmentation. But in my experience - and yes, I'm young -
helping people and giving a damn is not the 'status quo' - the status
quo is consumer culture, selfish accumulation and blinkered
irresponsibility.
...I spent 2 and a half years volunteering in my community full time
and watched one very good agency die from lack of funding and another
very good agency never get off the ground from lack of it.
...so I moved and haven't yet got stable enough yet to make any kind
of significant commitment of time.
...I don't want this to degenerate further so I'm going to end this
thread, but I've learned from it so thank-you for that.
