Hi Y'all,
Oops. I made a few errors on that last mailing, like the heading with
2000 instead of 2001. Sorry.
Enclosed is the CORRECTED and updated version of the Culture's Edge
Calendar of Events for 2001. I have attached it as an HTML document
which should open automatically in your email program. Some people
cannot receive HTML docs. If you are in that category, the plaintext
format is included below. Again, please share these events with your
mailing lists and, if you can, please join us at Earthaven for work,
learning, co-creation, and celebration. You can also view the calendar
at

Thanks,
Keith
