thoughts on a mobile autonomous community


i've always always had this dream of getting land and putting a bunch of trailer's, school bus's, and sustainable/experimental housing and inviting freinds. but, as the article below shows, even when such things are done with the best intentions, there is no way to escape forces that will bring down a dream. sonoma grove had the idea right- buy a plot of land near a university (universities are a great location, becuase they usaully have a self-contained economy, plenty to read and plenty of people to advocate for said dream), plant a bunch of trees and call it home.
not sure this is how i would do it, but i give them the big 23 for trying.
anyone heard of this place? been there? know what happened since?
here's to big dreams that never end.
