Idea Profile
  | Projet OASISPLEASE NOTE COMMENTARIES: Most Recent - Turn Montreal's now abandoned, 100 year-old, 58 hectare, sun-drenched, windswept plateau - the Hippodrome (former horse race course and gambling operation) - into a combination practical "Université Verte," local natural/organic food growing operation, permaculture edible-park, CSA terminus and artisanal guild-occupied centre. A PLACE WHERE the human and financial resources of the entire community could be put at the disposal of ALL OF THE SUBMISSIONS IN THIS 'HORSERACE,' and where everyone concerned for the good of the community, and the welfare of the planet, could work together, cooperatively, upon the research, development, implementation and achievement of all of their excellent ideas, noble goals and visionary aspirations. A capital un-intensive project and ready-made facilty. Biologique, Dynamique, Synergique, Durable, avec Potentiel 'EXPO'-nentiel! SEE SYDNEY LINK IN COMMENTARIES: SVP: Voir les commentaires. Merci.

Transformez l'hippodrome abandonné de Montréal à une agriculture urbaine/environnementale "Université Verte." Il est impératif qu'un système de production alimentaire - actionné par le grand public qualifié (et dans la formation) -parallèle au système industriel primaire de la production agricole et de la distribution (un "back-up") est en place et fonctionnel avant n'importe quelle forme de désastre, normale ou autrement, pas ensuite. C'est juste un des nombreux objectifs de ce projet. |

UNPLUG & DISCONNECT I'm Bloggin' you here and NOW! Talking to myself a lot, apparently. It was Timothy Leary who famously said, "Turn On. Tune In. Drop out," and Jerry Rubin who reportedly said, "Never trust anyone over 30." Well, Timothy Leary's dead, and so is Jerry Rubin. Now, less famously, it‘s me, Benoit Bodine, and I say: TURN OFF (your t.v., radio, iPod, cell phone, computer, etc.) Go acoustic, get face to face: Word gets around - even to the ends of the earth. Then take a good look, deep into the well, follow the stream back to the river, and the river to the Source, to find out where you draw your water from. *** C'est moi, je me suis Benoit Bodine, et je dis aussi : *** La Route des Navigateurs ? La Route des Navigateurs La Route des Navigateurs Dream Dreams Dreamers - Et Bon Voyage! |
