Cohousing-L Mailing List: Making cohousing easier

[Rob Sandelin (Exchange) (Robsan]

I agree with several ideas about how to use professionals. I would also =
point out that cohousing might succceed much quicker in taking over the =
suburban world if we did it ala N-street.  Stop building all these =
multimillion dollar projects and start buying houses in existing =
neighborhoods instead.

So buy two house on the same block, then become neighborhood activists =
and get all kinds of groovy neighborliness stuff going, and then =
activily market any houses for sale on the block to fellow travellors.  =
Much better for the environment too. =20

I would also encourage folks to TAKE ACTION where you live right now.  =
Hold a neighborhood potluck celebration for something or other.  If your =
neighbors are strangers today, they don't have to be tommorrow.  Make a =
resolution to invite one neighbor over for dinner a month.  Its up to =
you. NO EXCUSES.
