== Earth Day ==
Hank,
I'm planning to be in the Silverton area on Earth Day weekend, along with Brandon and Shelley, the two other active members of the SolSeed Movement, and possibly my parents. We were wondering if this would be a good opportunity to meet you in person and possibly visit your geodesic CELSS construction site. What do you think?
Thanks!
Ben

== Evaluation ==
* Brandon ... I thought it was really nice to have Eric ... we made good progress despite it being difficult for me
* Eric ... it went well, I learned a lot (ex. topical communities, WWWs) ... good to be working on this whole concept with people instead of alone
* Ben ... glad Eric could join us, glad that we have the One-Page Plan for this quarter ... a bit daunted by all the work that we have ahead of us
