=Logistics and Practical Checklist=

I don't remember. He will follow up and send his resume. He wants to learn skills. FeF Volunteer is good - to learn the skills for free - its like going to college Yes July 1st is a good time - just got a job and should fill his commitment for a little while If he enjoys it - it could be a long-term commitment - could be 6 months or more He stumbled upon it and emailed on a whim Fixing our planet is the overlying message. The disparity/equality in efficiency, power, intelligence are not used to help people - too much money is spent on war and not on feeding people - the prices of the machinery are lower so we lower barriers Learn the ropes, he's a quick learner, only needs to be shown once, would love to help with agriculture, construction, and manufacturing, whatever we need. He is gardening right now - he can be self directed - he's generally interested in things and is curious - We lower barriers. He loves to build things, he's a thinker, he doesn't have tools or experience, but he loves to tinker and fix things. I would be interested in that, has some graphic design experience, can do it. '''Will upload his personal video example. Assignment - take videos of the hablab and edit together a story video documenting the building of the hablab. We will send him a link to the playlist for the hablab. 3 minutes. Be as creative as you like - add music or voiceover - use your personal creativity to demonstrate what you're capable of. Due on Friday, May 11th. We will get back to him by Monday, the 13th.''' That people are starting to see through the powers that be and the media and people are starting to do the right thing instead of what's the most profitable - change is coming instead of just ideas of change.
