Great to have tracked you down. I am really interested in how the communities functioned on a day to day level. Were they isolated, with no money used (barter economies) or drop-in places etc. I believe the children were communally cared for but little more. How did it work in practice in other words?
I am seriously into joining/founding a living "garden" community heavily directed by Epicurus, but to date I have had no joy in locating a community that implements his amazing insights or others serious about this. Oh to be able to teleport to be part of one of the (hopefully) flourishing communities. To think of all we miss due to his lack of influence today.
