N. Seattle Community Video Roeby Simons not Roeby Simms December, 1974 RAIN RAIN is a monthly bulletin board. As.stuff comes our way by phone, mail, feet, hands and mouth we make entries, abstracts, paragraphs. We emphasize environmental/energy related and communications kinds of information; and we are interested in the evolutionary possibilities of inter-disciplinary connections. Our geographic emphasis is the Pacific Northwest, though our prejudice will be Oregon, and more specifically Portland. You can correct our bias by your feedback, sending us information on projects, exciting books, pieces, newsletters, ideas, photos, corrections. Positions and Situations is a place for you to locate others, more or less without our editorial intervention. If you are thinking about thinking about doing something here's the place to find next steps and connections. We have spent nearly as much time constructing our mailing list, as compiling the newsletter. It is presently composed of environmental educators, people doing energy related research, other newsletters, other centers, community organizers, governmental and private environmentally related groups and agencies. If you have other persons you think should receive RAIN, drop us a note. Why you may not be entered: We don't know about you, you are lost in brown boxes and manila envelopes, or we ran out of time and space. You will notice initials following some entries: The person submitting the entry is found in the list of contributors. In addition to RAIN, during the year we expect to publish: 1) City Survival, a short directory (or series) to information resources in Portland, 2) A Directory of Environmental Information Resources in the Pacific Northwest, 3) How To Sheets, guides to getting things done, like how to find your way through governmental bureaucracies, 4) An Access Guide, to materials at EEC/Energy Center. Please mention RAIN when asking for information from individuals and groups, as it then encourages those people to keep us posted. (S.J.)
