Re: 2 announcements: Your Carfree Day pictures for wcn website + internal mailinglist

Dear Markus,

Regarding pictures, please feel free to go to our website, 
Peoplepowersc.org. If you want something from there and need better 
resolution you can email our graphic artist: [email protected]

Regarding, being part of the internal list, I've been thinking about it 
for a few days. Firstly, I care about the world carfree network.
Secondly, I know that these kind of groups need leadership.
Thirdly, I very much appreciate the leadership that you and others provide.
However, I try to keep my activism to thinks that I enjoy, and I really 
don't enjoy the medium of email, or making decisions by email. I've 
gotten rid of it at home and I don't want to be more tied to at work (I 
however do a lot of it as you can imagine). I really much prefer going 
door to door or what have you, which is totally possible in my job at 
People Power but not so much with the World Carfree Network.
So, I want to respectfully decline your invitation.

I did put in 8 hours or so trying to support the Network in Portland. 
I'm also willing to take personal emails or phone calls and occasionally 
weigh in on a list (as I am today) when my energy allows.
I have offered to help train Justin on membership issues.
I will try to come to more conferences, especially as my kid grows up.
Give me a call anytime.
