Sandra - next goal is to make Localism the World's greatest and most complete and comprehensive NeighborPedia.  It will take some time, but I believe together we can all make it happen.  :-)

We just realized, had we waited one more day then we'd have been (perhaps) the 100,000th member. (signed up on the 24th)  Ah well, congratulations and a big lucky you to your 10,000 bonus points. Believe me those bonus points aren't easy to get. (we're still at 0 :( )
