Larry,

You may not be familiar with Robert (who brought up the issue of cost), but he does a lot of work with the poor in Oklahoma. He wasn't asking for himself, he was asking for the people he works with. I believe his request is in accordance with the Permaculture ethic "Care of People".

When the issues of "costs" and making courses more economical come up... I've noticed that it is usually brought up by people that don't actually have the experience of ever organizing a course...

Never have I heard from the person who just went through the energy outputs of organizing a course, to go on to ask for -less money next time!..

It seems to me that the issues presented of making things more affordable are the same across the board, with everything... why don't "they" make rent cheaper for me? -why don't "they" make musical instruments cheaper for me? -why don't "they" make solar panels cheaper for me?..
