Jeannie,

I have a copy of the DVD. It was given to me by a friend. I do not know how he acquired it. I would be happy to send you a copy. Unfortunately the first few minutes of the video have been copied over and the quality is poor.

Hello Jeannie! "Connect Ireland" (please see http://www.connectireland.com/ )has just authorised me to help set up Mondragon cooperatives in Ireland: as I will be using the model of the partnership between the Mondragon Cooperative Corporation and United Steelworkers (please see http://www.usw.org/media_center/releases_advisories?id=0523 and http://www.usw.org/media_center/news_articles?id=1040 ), I'm also approaching the Irish Congress of Trade Unions, and will also be seeking the support of Occupy Ireland, Occupy Dublin, etc. (I myself am from Occupy San Bernardino Valley, California).

I'm heartened that so many are seeking to build a different economy of, by, and for the 99%: let's work together to achieve this. I can be reached via my Facebook page, emailed via rararoadrunner@hotmail.com, or by phone at 1-909-574-2607.

I hope to hear from you soon, yours, in solidarity, Matt Owen.
