Mike, Good to hear from you.  And I'm very glad to hear how involved you are in Champaign/Urbana activities.  Keep it up.  The world needs more people like you. And thanks for the comments about the web site.  I have not talked with the Urbana tech guys, but think that that would be invaluable.  Do you have contact info for any of them.  We are close on this 'Active' code, but I'm just missing something, and I'm not sure what it is.  I'm hoping they would be able to help us work it out. I'm hoping to make it over next weekend for the C/U IMC meeting.  Congrats on all you've accomplished over there. Talk with you soon,Marc-----Original Message-----

Marc, 
Mike Walcher here, 
Are you talking with the tech group here in Urbana about the Active SoftWare? 
    the site looks cool ! and ive been reading the emails since I left in August, Its good to see things are getting worked out etc. 
I am excited about iMC and things are growing rapidly at Urbana iMC, we just finished remodeling the back space( back back space ) 
Newly acquired space in the very back to hold performances etc. 
    I am mostly interesting in working more closely with Springfield again, and seeing Urbana and Springfield join together on some issues will be powerful im sure... 
well, all is well and let me know of what information you are needing from Urbana IMC etc. ,

And we do not yet have the Active code set up for the site, so most of the interactive features won't be available for some time - but we are working on that, and with a dozen more calls or emails to the global techies, Lisa and I might just figure out what we are doing. Anyone who is interested in working on the technical/cyberspace working group, what we most need right now is some structural content for the information sections of the site (i.e. about us, become the media, support imc, resources & links, contact us).  If you have a talent for graphics, your help would also be appreciated.  Anyone interested in helping out with the site or working group should contact myself (msanson at email.com) or Lisa (mslisa at home.com).  Anyone interested in submitting stories or feature articles should consider joining the media production group.  In the meantime, submissions can be made to myself (msanson at email.com).  So, peruse the site when you get a chance and offer what comments and constructive criticism you can. Peace,Marc Sanson-----Original Message-----

Subject: RE: Physical Space

Joe, Glad to hear you're still interested in a physical space.  As of now, there is no functioning Building/Operations Committee, and as such, no one is currently exploring a space. However, there is some movement with Heartland Peace Center in getting a new space, and they are interested in bring other groups in with them.  Below is a summary of where that stands. So, if anyone is interested in getting involved in that committee, we could use some people to sit down with Heartland and see how feasible such an arrangement could be.  Any of you interested in working on this project? Marc The Heartland Peace Center is close to making a decision on a newlocation to establish a community center. The one they are looking at isvery amenable to IMC activities and extra office/storage space. They arevery interested in getting other groups involved in supporting the center.So, if we do continue, that might present some opportunities for us in thefuture to secure physical space. At the very least it would ease theproblems of finding space to meet on a regular basis. Any one wishing to donate individually to the Peace Center, in general orspecifically to support a community center, can send checks to: HeartlandPeace Center, 1337 Wabash Avenue Springfield, Illinois 62704Please indicate if you are donating specifically for the community center,so they can return the donation in the event they do not take the space.You can also visit HPC at www.heartlandpeacecenter.org, send email tofolks at heartlandpeacecenter.org or call the Peace Line at 217.787.3047 topledge your support to the center.-----Original Message-----

Subject: [Imc-Springfield] Physical Space

Any progress on the quest for physical space?  There is a ridiculous amount of commercial space available on 11th and South Grand (Walleye Stop, Skank Skates, etc).  Much of this space appears to be in good condition, and there is what appears to be a print shop in the neighborhood.  Rents average about $400/mo for a storefront.  It has been quite a while since my (brief) involvement with the IMC.  I hope y'all don't let procedural bullshit continue to get you down.Joe.
