Well yes, there is a lot of community dancing in Fairfield, Iowa. Has been from way back in the meditating community. It appeals to the communal arts of music and dance in meditating Fairfield. Was a big social thing that was hosted on campus for years until they started removing

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: Peace on Earth?

Square Dancing itself has really taken hold in meditating Fairfield as a subset. Club square dancing in America generally has been in long decline but what has happened is a marvel that square dancing has erupted [revived] more recently in Fairfield as a vehicle of social interaction. The rote

Looks like some of the voting maps of Iowa except for 2008 when a lot of the state maps would look blue because people were sick of Bush. I visited Fairfield once in the late 1990s. It reminded me of eastern Washington. In the 1980s I lived back home in eastern Washington. Nobody made a big

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: Peace on Earth?

I have some tech friends who worked at Microsoft who got involved with a square dance club when they lived in the Seattle area. For me that was hard to imagine but they seemed to have fun with it. Being into video production you'll appreciate this but I recall watching locally produced

There were big hopes in the 1980s that Fairfield would grow as the meditating community grew, but it never really happened. Population has remained steady at just under 10,000. It's true you can run into the same people very frequently here, but some people like that -- it's part of feeling

I have never before seen the claim that the ME will not work in a community of under 10,000. That's actually pretty odd, since Fairfield itself numbers only about 9,500 people, which would mean that the ME has zero effect here, but is able, so to speak, to jump over Fairfield and affect other
