  Moonbases in New England?
 
Hey All! I was just curious about how many Moonbase builders out there might be relatively close to me. Are there other Moonbases in or nearby New England?

  Casting a large net
 
The "casting of a large net" is a very interesting topic. In fact I think it is one of the most over looked concepts in the formation of a new club. In the early stages of forming a club the biggest hurdle is achieving critical mass. So by covering (...)
