Neighborhood co-ops swapping services

A story in Better Homes & Gardens caught Clark’s attention recently. It was about how neighborhoods are setting up their own teaching co-ops. The people in the neighborhood basically talk about their skills strengths and then swap services with each other. The bigger affect, of course, is that neighborhoods are once again getting to know each other. The sense of community is growing again because of these groups. Christa, Clark’s executive producer, lives in a neighborhood like this and she loves it. She recently went to a party where everyone wore nametags that also listed services they could offer. Some walk dogs or fix computers, while others offer sewing lessons or music lessons. To find out more, go to timedollar.org. And the best part is that it’s cheap!

This week's poll
NYC health inspectors have been handing out violations to chain restaurants that don't post calorie counts on their menus. What's your take on this?
I believe in what the inspectors are doing. Long live the food police.
This isn't a legitimate function of gov't-paid employees.
I couldn't care less. I'd be eating at home to save money!
