San Diego County

[Rocky_Shorz]

Hey whitecrow, should we try to put together a group here in San Diego on 11/9 to go to this?

Thank you to everyone that responded to our request for input!

Zeitgeist Addendum came in first, Zero was a very close second, and Fabled Enemies was a not too distant third. Zeitgeist Addendum will be shown November 9th! Look for future screenings of the other two films in our upcoming announcements.

Let’s use the screening of this provocative film, Zeitgeist Addendum, as the foundation for a lively and practical community conversation about positive economic action we can take locally.

Rather than show this film in its entirety, we will show Parts 1 and 2 - Fractional Reserve Banking and Economic Hitman John Perkins. After the film, the condition of our economic circumstances will be further revealed through a lecture on Disaster Capitalism. Jeeni Criscenzo has generously offered to share with us a presentation she has created based on the book The Shock Doctrine by Naomi Klein.

With the problem clearly defined; we will be ready for our conversation.

We hope to see you there!!

The best way to stay oriented, to resist shock, is to know what’s happening to you and why -- Naomi Klein

[Note: we left many of you with the impression that Zero was a Russian film. In fact Zero is an Italian film that was recently shown on Prime Time television in Russian; it was also broadcast on Croatian National TV.]

Dang, I'll be working. If you go, I'd love to hear about it!

[Vanlom]

that sounds like fun and id really like to go to the movie/ discussion of the zeitgeist addendum. id also like to get together with local so' cal people and talk around the campfire so to speak..

regarding the discussion: id like to argue that the most important part about the zeitgeist addendum is the fact that people today have no idea as to the state of technology as it exists right now (think Nikola Tesla, Ralph Ring, Otis t Carr, Joseph Newman...) and that once more and more people discover these new technologies it will lessen the grasp the elite have over everyone. think about it, if Nikola Tesla was allowed to sell his lightning rods would energy be thought of as "scarce" today? i think not

I'm in Escondido & I work in Vista. Folks are always welcome round my campfire. The only problem with that is that I rarely have weekends off. This week my days off are Tuesday and Saturday...and that will change next week. I hike every chance I get, either at Daley Ranch or around Lake Hodges or such, and I welcome companionship. I enjoy taking groups to Daley Ranch and the surrounding area, and pointing out the many standing stones that form a huge complex in North County. Feel free to PM me anytime you'd like to get together!

I also have not lost hope that we can form an actual Ground Crew in the area. I already meet with one group of folks in Vista who are pretty dedicated to sustainability and new paradigms. If some folks here decide they'd like to be part of such a group - meeting face-to-face instead of in cyberspace - I hope to be part of that.

man i live adjacent to Cowels Mountain, we should definetly hike up that thing sometime.

maybe we should plan a date we all converge and spill our guts? my house is totally open anytime, we just need to plan it out in advance. what you think?

[Forty-two]

Hi I live in Escondido too. Sustainability is right on.
Would like to meet like minded folks locally - I feel there are probably lots of us around.

[Vanlom]

absolutly, i think im going to head to the Addendum showing on the 9th if anyone else is interested. ill be sporting my bright red " I support Ron Paul" T-shirt on with a big smile. From there i think we can pretty much organize another meetup where we have more san diegans that want to manifest the san diego ground crew. any takers?

[Vanlom]

just found this group on Avalon who have already started meetups so lets join em!

Great! Let's turn North County into an impregnable radiant zone.

I'm definitely up for that! The last time I hiked Cowles Mtn. was in the 70s. In the days before mountain bikes, we would rebuild a Schwinn paperboy bike with handbrakes and gears - that area out Mission Gorge was a place you could shoot guns, ride, and explore. Santee was tiny and all those neighborhoods around Patrick Henry HS weren't built yet.

Hike on Tuesday????????? nov, 11?

[Kimmie]

Hi Ya'll this is Kimmie from Southwest Florida!!

I sure do wish I was there to Hike with Ya'll today...instead I'll be in the garden, and making Orgonite pieces!!

My Dad lived in San Diego for many years. Both on-duty and as a civi-afterwards. It's such a beautiful area....consider yourselves Blessed!!

Today as you hike, I'd like to give you each this thought. After reading all three of George Green's bookes about what a "Ground Crew" is...and Where a "Safe Place" is. I find the answers to be this:

A GROUND CREW IS any group no-matter it's size-that work together for the highest good for all involved" and a Safe Place will be: WHERE EVER THE ABOVE DEFINED GROUND CREW
GATHER!!

We all have within ourselves the soul and energy to create a "safe place" around ourselves and large enough to protect those around us. Yet in our "human-ism" we feel that there must be more than just ourselves to be strong or effectivly powerful.

[COLOR="Lime"]IF ANY ONE OF YOU GOES OUT FOR THE HIKE AND FIND YOURSELF TO BE THE ONLY ONE WHO SHOWED UP...PLEASE "SMILE"...BEND SLIGHTLY AT THE WAIST...TAKE MY HAND AND SAY, " GOOD TO MEET YOU kIMMIE[, LET'S TAKE A WALK".

/COLOR]

I'm sending you warm wishes and a Key Lime pie made with fresh grown Floridaaaa Key Limes!!!

Take lots of Pics!!
