The link to Feminism as Anarchism by Lynne Farrow does not work. 

The host site, cluefactory.org.uk, appears to have placed a robots.txt
file that covers the whole site.  As a result, the Internet Archive
Wayback Machine at archive.org has retroactively eliminated access
to its old archive of the text.  I cannot find the text through searches
by author and subject at cluefactory.org.uk. 

Do you have a direct link, or a copy of this content that you could
post to the forum or send to participants by electronic mail?

Re: Readings for October 25

Haha, this is gonna be like school when everyone waits until the last minute to do their reading... I have read 2 of the 4 myself.

I was very interested by the piece on buying a house with anticapitalist intentions, as that is very much along the lines of something I'd like to do.  I couldn't help thinking, however, that their whole experiment of sorts would never have been possible without a very sizable loan from their grandparents.  Clearly not everyone has that option, and it is still, at its root, relying on a wealthier class to subsidize or kick-start your actions.  Not that I'm criticizing them for that, but I do wonder where those of us without well-to-do family members are supposed to start...  The plan in the back of my mind has been to find enough friends with jobs that we can, through our collective buying power, pool together enough money for a very sizable down payment.  Finding these mythical friends-with-decent-jobs-who-also-want-to-live-in-a-farming-collective has proven very difficult. :(

Curse you, economy!

For the discussion group on November 14 at 2 pm, we were supposed to take two surveys and be prepared to discuss them.  I do not know a link for the survey on power relationships.  The questionnaire "Are You A Manarchist?" can be found, along with reader comments, at:
