Georges,
Rightly, or wrongly, I have been involved with many groups of all
discriptions, some not too dissimilar to what you describe, they fit in to
the more general discriptions of protest groups.
They also suffer the same problem as politicians and bureaucrats i.e. no one
asks the people.

G:
We talk about different things.

1.Our Forums ARE people, or simulate large collectivities
with smaller ones, which for the moment seems the only
practical thing.

2.Our Forums chose their themes, which may be, but not
are necessarily protests. Researching peace in ME, learning
about and opting for truly ecological energy or agriculture
is not protest, at least not just negative protest, but
search of positive, constructive options.

3.At least in two places we had country and world level
impact:

3.1.Haifa Workshop contributed to "I Do Care" and via it
to the current Peace Movement encompassing large Israel's
majority and having a world level impact,

3.2.French Parliament used our Forum's largely WEB
published study and arguments to vote against Brussell's
pressure drastic restrictions of the windmill fraud.

That's IMO a little bit more than WDDM masturbation
"projects".

Georges.
