Great post, just up voted it! I wish I had more SP so my vote did more good for you. Ever think you might want to come visit Dancing Rabbit Ecovillage? You can check out our website here: http://www.dancingrabbit.org. I've lived here for 11 years, so if you have questions about the place let me know. Also, if you are interested in paying for your lodging and food with SMD while you are here, that can be arranged as there is a friend of mine who runs an Air BnB that will accept SMD for payment.
