Cohousing-L Mailing List: Re: Senior Cohousing List

[Ann Zabaldo (zabaldo]

Hi all —

Thanks, Fred for your note.

My experience w/ the Directory contact info is that it’s not trustworthy.  I’ve 
often sent an email to the contact person at a community only to wait, wait, 
wait.

Plus my need here is for a contact person willing to be interviewed by this 
reporter from the Philly Inquirer who is knowledgeable about the group’s 
founding and it’s current values, status, etc.

So I’m looking for “live” and/or  “active” contacts.

Please … no offense to anyone in re: “live” or “active” descriptions.  

Best --
