Has anyone heard anything about this? I came across the website and it sounded interesting...

That is a great concept ! I wonder if it really works. It shows that utopias are sometimes more realistic than we would think.

I had never heard of this so thanks for letting us know. I only browsed through it but I'll take more time later to read thoroughly.

I don't think there are any TPunks in the area, South India, at the moment that we could have assigned there on journalistic duty for us ! B) Too bad !

I've been in auroville, just to visit. it looked allright.
only strang thing is; at aurobeach there is a sign wich says, no indians allowed, "this beach is only for aurovillians and their visitors, please respect privacy and do not stare"
thought that was pretty strange for a comunity that says, that everybody should feel at home there.
If you go there as a visitor, you dont really get a good feeling of it (at least, in my opinion). So should go back and stay there...

just joined membership, Hello everybody
