Obviously check out Herman Daly and Robert Costanza (latter is at U of Md.). If you're in DC tomorrow (the 24th, Thursday), come to a brown-bag at EPI given by Costanza. There was a president's Commission on Sustainable Development (Dean was on it) which did reports or statements of some kind. Cheers, Max =================================================== Max B.
