Rachel, thanks for an interesting post.  You say "We here at Ecovillage 
Ithaca".  I have yet to visit youall, someday.  Does "Ecovillage
Ithaca" (ie those that share the pond) include more than one cohousing 
community?  People who are not in a cohousing community?  Any idea how 
many people in total share the pond?  If it is significantly more than 
in a typical cohousing community, how does this affect use?  For example  
a larger pool of people to share supervison / lifeguard duty when children 
are present.
