·t\n InT'RODuClTon To B~SIOJ<mtn<-7 · "Brainstorming, is the first in a series of RAIN-sheltered print tools designed to shape more positive and practical alternatives to a future in which the world's resources grow more scarce, and the rate of change call for changes in our attitudes and life styles. The Roughdrafts represent a philosophy about survival through dissemination of public information, learning to do things for ourselves, and moving beyond institutional territoriality. In large part, the philosophy has been envisioned by Don Stotler, Director of the Environmental Education Center, in his many books and publications over the last twenty-five years. . As the name "Roughdraft, implies, the information presented here is by no means the "last word, on a subject, but rather a tentative answer and a hitching post around which to organize our concerns for now. If the Roughdrafts speak to things that have been on your mind, we'd like to know about that. Hopefully, your copy of each Roughdraft will be flexible and durable enough that you can punch it out, hang it up, bring it to the park and on picnics, and pass it on to friends. Most important, we hope to hear about your visions and revisions of each draft. There are a few other ideas on our minds which will be shared in upcoming issues 0f RAIN. How to get funded, how to do a model block, how to close a street, and how to get centers started, are a few of them. What would you like to see in future drafts? Does anyone know how to tan leather? How about the best soap and candle-making recipes? RAIN will publish your Roughdrafts if we can be provided with the information, and we can pass on your suggestions for Roughdraft topics to people who might help us decide what to say about them. . .. . . . .. . . . . . .. . -......................................................................... oo1Re~ commenlS: To: [m>rROntnenTN....(Pl.JC5Jfm cenTeR- % .AniT~ HeLle Room 373 LJncol.n 1-1~ Po~~D SJNe Un1veRSi!)'
