Based on latest feedback, latest version:

"Think Cooperation: buy from a Co-op, join a Credit Union, join another Co-op, form a Co-op..."

It is concise, covers most bases, still reads easily...

OK?

Thanks to all who had replied so far.

Have not heard anything about the "amalgam" solution given before:

- Think Cooperation...
- Buy From a Co-op
- Join a Co-op
- Join Another Co-op
- Form a Co-op

Since edited with proper punctation, to read as one sentence, below. This 'Do One Thing' seems addressed to a wide, general audience. If we had a "range" of actions that are truly do-able for almost anyone, and this could include several of our ideas, all worthwhile, leading off with the "summary" thought---

"Think Cooperation: buy from a Co-op, join a Co-op, join another Co-op, form a Co-op..."

Last call? Is this OK? Application must go in!

By the way... 'DOT' is not the Dept. of Transportion, but a "Do One Thing" idea for the HOPE Festival, April 27, in Orono--mark you calendar!

Since this 'DOT' will be to a wide, general audience, I was thinking we make the DOT a "range" of actions that are truly do-able for almost anyone, and this could include several of our ideas, all worthwhile, leading off with a "summary" thought:

- Think Cooperation...
- Buy From a Co-op
- Join a Co-op
- Join Another Co-op
- Form a Co-op

What say you?
