Hello again Professor Chomsky,

I am working with an organization dedicated to building Open Source eco-villages which are self-sufficient, and I will be staying with them at least over the summer. The idea is to bring down costs to the point where it becomes trivially cheap to collaborate and freely express one's creativity, as we have begun to see online as concepts like Wikipedia supersede the old corporate models. The idea should have extraordinary relevance to combating poverty as well.

Here is are some short videos of the farm:

If you have any thoughts, or could put us in contact with other similarly minded people, it would be appreciated.
