Hi San Diego Futurists,

ASF is launching a new discussion list for our North American Future
Salon Network. I hope those of you who like sharing cool thoughts, and
listening to and learning from the conversation of fascinating,
inquisitive, intelligent, and courteous future-oriented thinkers will
join up today. As always, you can set your Yahoo! List Preferences to
receive Individual Emails (highest volume), a Daily Digest (one email a
day) or Web Only (no email).

The ASF Future Salon Network <http://accelerating.org/futuresalon.html>
has grown to an impressive 2,340 online members in 15 different U.S.
salon communities. In addition to all our local salon talk lists, we
feel it's time to create one list to rule them all, one list to find
them, one list to bring them all and in the brightness, bind them. :)

Seriously, we need a list for our entire North American Network. NAFSN -
Talk is a great place to stay connected with and meet new
future-oriented friends across the United States and Canada. Grow your
network!

NAFSN - Talk is a moderated list. It will seek to be bit more formal and
professional than our local salon talk lists. It will be pre-filtered
for spam, flames, rants, angry diatribes, and excessive long-windedness.
We futurists (see Twelve Types of Futures Thinking
<http://www.accelerationwatch.com/futuristdef.html> ) can sometimes get
impractical, extremist, and overly focused on our own agendas, and we we
want the list to be a cut above the norm. Just great, thoughtful,
professional insights, discussion and very civil debate about the many
fascinating facets of our future.

You can sign up for NAFSN - Talk at
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/nafsntalk/

If the list rules look good to you, we would love to have your voice in
the community!

Thanks for being part of the salon community, and I look forward to
talking to you online.

Wishing you the very best future in 2007,

John Smart
