What is going to happen? Are they just going to talk about the VP project? Or is it a big Q & A session?

@Matthew - yeah, I have to admit that I have not really been a huge proponent of the VP myself, to date -- mostly because I've always viewed the whole thing as being extremely Utopian and idealistic, and not something that could be easily implemented on a large scale any time in the near future.  I do, however, see it as somewhat of an inspirational vision for the future, and an organization that we could all learn a few things from.  

Thanks for your input.  

oh! and the last link that I provided above was to archived recordings of previous seminar sessions.  ;-)

Had a look here to see what it was about

Sounds like a great project indeed.. I never knew something like this existed. I'm really interested now. (not in this event but the project itself) But, I know there's a lot of problems in the way of convincing people from different countries, against their kind of.. xenophobia, and their nationalism.

I'm really doubtful that anything major in terms of 'an ultimatum: paradise or extinction' will have a real foundation-shaking effect on our society within the next few decades but the research they've done would be interesting to learn about.

I'd love to, but I'll be in Stavanger Norway exploring fjords that day.
