== BHAGS ==
Jim Collins coined the term BHAG, "Big Hairy Audacious Goal"
* 10-30 year timeframe
* Big enough that we don't know how to reach it
* Examples:
** JFK and putting a man on the moon
** Starbucks wants to be the biggest brand in the world
* Important to how an organization grows
Thoughts on a [[SolSeed]] BHAG
* [[Brandon]]: Creating a [[society]] (physical not virtual)
** Ben: A society that is about [[bringing life]], and to some degree about being [[starfarers]]
** Ted has built a housing co-op
** [[Brandon]]: Need an interface of [[life]]-giving flows with the outside world
*** ''[http://howtodisappear.net How to Disappear]''
** [[Spiriata]] could be a sister society
* Ted: Pick something to try on provisionally
== Near-term project ideas ==
* Kevin wants to choose at least one to start by March 30th (his birthday)
* Brenna: Educate people about healthy lifestyles
* Identify an existing project that could substantially benefit from our help
* [[Brandon]]: Seed repository
** [[Bringing life]] to our neighborhoods in the process
* Bonnie: Create a space for women, esp. single mothers, to give them support
* Web resources
** [[CleanDrinkingWater]]: would include interviews as well as website
*** Kevin's wife Lindsay could get involved
** Ben: Spacefaring communities
*** Kevin: Does it already exist?
** List of organizations and people that we consider to be [[kindred]] and hope to support
*** Possible goal: have a "bountiful" list by [[Sol 2009]]
*** Ted: Introduce those groups ''to each other'' and thus help the "greater movement" to become more self-aware
*** [[Brandon]]: Host an [[OpenSpace]] for all the ones we identify
**** Possible location: Portland Unitarian Universalist Church?
* Ted: Remake the ''Upward Spiral'' movie with better quality
