Links

This will be a one or two post blog. I will simply be re-editing the first couple of posts. Please respond with any other links you may have, objections, etc. I will put some in my list of links and just leave others for people to find.

Right now I am looking especially for links on alternative healing and working on the state and local level to get local needs met that aren't being dealt with on a national level. This will be especially important if Bush's social security destruction heads the country in the direction we all fear it will.

Disclaimer-I didn't get anyone's permission to list them here so I am not affiliated with anyone and vise versa. If someone want's off this list, tell me.
