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!

Vive l'Université Verte! Now that I think about it, all parks should be edible!
How 'bout the entire landscape - including buildings and furniture!
Thanks, Kelly!
Thank you, EVERYONE!
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.
Matthew,
I voted for your idea.
God bless,

Self-sealing "CREAMTOP" Yogurt

Whisk
Tongs
Simplified Preparation: (Temperature = Fahrenheit)
- Put four tablespoons of yogurt into Pyrex measuring cup
- Pour 4 litres of milk into a large metal pot.

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.)
TUNE OUT (mass media)
DROP IN (to reality)
&
SMASH YOUR IDOLS: UNPLUG & DISCONNECT
TRUST NATURE. (to show you what you are really made of and who you really are)
NEXT: TRUST YOURSELF (your intuition)
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 :

Shapes of things before my eyes,
Just teach me to despise.
Will time make men more wise?
Here within my lonely frame,
My eyes just hurt my brain.
But will it seem the same?
Come tomorrow, will I be older?
Come tomorrow, may be a soldier.
Come tomorrow, may I be bolder than today?
Now the trees are almost green.
But will they still be seen?
When time and tide have been.
Fall into your passing hands.
Please don't destroy these lands.
Don't make them desert sands.
Come tomorrow, will I be older?
Come tomorrow, may be a soldier.
Come tomorrow, may I be bolder than today?
Soon I hope that I will find,
Thoughts deep within my mind.
That won't displace/disgrace my kind.
UNPLUG & DISCONNECT!

Ten years after - I'd Love to Change the World
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jzrUqAtUcpU
Everywhere is freaks and hairys
Dykes and fairies
Tell me where is sanity?
Tax the rich, feed the poor
Till there are no, rich no more
I'd love to change the world
But I don't know what to do
So I'll leave it up to you
Population, keeps on breedin'
Nation bleedin', still more feedin'
Economy
Life is funny, skies are sunny
Bees made honey, who needs money?
Monopoly
I'd love to change the world
But I don't know what to do
So I'll leave it up to you
Oh, yeah!
More pollution, there's no solution
Restitution, mass confusion
Spread the word
Rich or poor
Save the earth
Stop the war
I'd love to change the world
But I don't know what to do
So I'll leave it up to you.
Why not!
Good question! Thanks for commenting and for your fanship!
