Dear cj, As you all know, my efforts are now focussed on writing the book (Achieving a Livable, Peaceful World), and my funds are nearly exhausted. I'm currently seeking an agent, which will hopefully lead to signing with a publisher and getting some advances. But who knows how long that might take, and advances for a first-time author might not amount to much. So I'm seeking help to brainstorm possible funding sources. Anyone out there got any ideas? There _must be some kind of grants available, or people with money who want to support worthwhile projects. --- Below is a note from Jay Kinney (who I'll be meeting in SF later this month), and an invitation from Parveez Syed for people to participate in his London-based radio show. all the best, rkm ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: Sat, 2 Jan 1999 To: •••@••.••• From: Jay Kinney <•••@••.•••> Subject: Re: cj#887> dialog re/model of revolution; Jay Kinney I appreciate the appreciation roused by my mention of RK Moore's work in Whole Earth.

BTW, since I live in San Francisco, if he is still around for a day or two after his folk music visit in the area, I'd enjoy meeting up in person. The whole concept of moving beyond Left and Right has been one that I've been working with for at least 20 years.
