[humanser] trade skills and tallents for services with time banking; for service-minded people

[Cari Kness]

I'm on Time banks here in Madison. Time Bank rocks! You do not have 
to do an even trade but just offer and request services and meet 
people. I use them for driving and cleaning. I'm offering to do 
speeches and read books and stuff. Unfortunately, not every city has 
a time bank but it is growing. In fact, in Madison next weekend, we 
are celebrating Time Bank's birthday. Not sure how old here.
Peace,
Cari
