     Maxlife has been moved to a new site with new email options.

     MaxLife is a list for those working toward a positive, healthy life
style while at the same time choosing to avoid heavy consumerism.  It is
for people who choose their activities with careful consideration to the
pleasure they bring as well as all their costs. 

     If you like any of the following, you might like this list:

Voluntary Simplicity by Elgin
The Tightwad Gazette by Amy Dacyczyn
One Circle Gardening by David Duhon
Your Money or Your Life by Joe Dominguez and Vicki Robin
The Utne Reader
Veggie Life
Organic Gardening
Utne Salons

     Topics invited for posting include how you are simplifying your life,
how you are bringing more pleasure to yourself and others, tips for saving
money, low(er)-cost vegetarian recipes, things you like about your life
and things you want to change, groups you are involved with that support
your lifestyle/changes, books or magazines you would like to recommend,
other email lists or ftp sites related to the list, questions concerning
changes you would like to make, thoughtful or thought provoking quotes,
and any other related information. 

     Posters are requested to be helpful and constructive and avoid
flaming other posters.  The list is intended as an offering of helpful
ideas and not intended to pressure people into adopting a certain type or
level of lifestyle.  Please read all available MaxLife postings after
logging in before responding to avoid duplicate posts. 

     If you have any questions about or problems with your subscription,
write to the list's postmistress, Penny Ward, at:  crunchy@email.unc.edu . 

Address posts for the list to:  maxlife@email.unc.edu      or

Happy posting!
