That's definately true, commonground. There are groups such as ours here in NC called SlowFoodPiedmont(.org) where those who support the movement are getting together for more elaborate projects that will get the message out to more people. (That's part of slowfoodusa.com) Joining the revolution is my sister and myself, and many of our friends and colleagues.

Great posts, great links. Thanks!
