Default Super Adobe workshop by Cal-Earth

Hey there everyone!
calling all those who wish to do a course in building your own adobe earth dome home. The Cal Earth institute; http://www.calearth.org/ is coming out to Australia in July to hold workshops. This is the email I received today...

"Hello,

You are receiving this email because you have inquired recently about your interested in Cal-Earth and Superadobe technology in Australia. We are please to say that Cal-Earth will be hosting its first workshop in Australia in July 2009. We are currently working out the details about location (if you have some land to offer for us to build on please let us know), as well as dates and prices. If you would be interested in receiving additional information to participate in this workshop please respond to this email with the following information:

Name
Address
Phone Number
E-Mail

And we will contact you once all the information has been finalized. We are so excited about this opportunity and are hoping to gather a good size group of people for our first Cal-Earth Australia workshop!

Best,

Sheefteh Khalili
Cal-Earth Institute "

This is an incredible opportunity!!! If we have enough interest in Australia, there is every chance they will do a workshop in your state or capital city. But I think that time is of the essence, if we want to get them here, we need to let them know that we want to do the workshops A.S.A.P.
The email address for Cal - Earth is calearth@aol.com
You need to give them all your details so that they know where you are...
These earth domes are incredibly cheap to build so if you know any bushfire victims who want to re-build, if you know anyone that wants an incredibly beautiful home for next to nix, or if you want to move to a safe place and learn the technology ahead of time, this is the time to do it.
with appreciation,
