Hey evolters,

Over on thechat it has come to our attention that evolt is about to turn 
a decade old on December 14, 2008.  Yes!!! it has been ten rock n' roll 
years since the first group of renegade geeks evolted from 
wired/hotwired/webmonkey monkeyjunkies list, to form their own utopian 
society, blah blah

Anyway, we should DO SOMETHING, or perhaps several things, to mark the 
occasion.  Community-building things.  Site-freshening things.  Party 
hats and beer-drinking things.

Some suggestions for activities:

1. mini-evolticons (aka beervolts) to take place WORLDWIDE.
*(see below for details)

2. help freshen up our content: submit an article to evolt.org
http://evolt.org/how-to-get-published-on-evolt-org

3. get yourself some rad evolt gear

4. donate to the cause
http://evolt.org/help_support_evolt

More ideas would be welcome, but off-topic here.
Come kick 'em around on thechat

Nothing happens unless YOU make it happen.

*How to arrange a commemorative beervolt:

a. locate your fellow regional evolt.org members and contact them for 
the purpose of meet, greet, and celebrate around the date of Dec 14. 
(Dec 14 is a Sunday, btw).
b. Meet up for beverages, networking, and good times.
c. Take photos! Post them online, and let us know on thechat and/or ping 
  our facebook group page (search facebook for evolt.org)

to help facilitate the beervolt process,
we have an evolt map -- so put yourself on it!
