Not One, But Two Good News Stories - What a Day

It's rare the we find any good news; rarer still that we have two good news stories in one day.

1. The Surrey Homelessness & Housing Society is offering $1 Million to a group that comes up with an innovative way to reduce homelessness.

I think that's great. Let's see what people - profit, not-for-profit, churches, anybody - can come up with.

Start with building housing.

2. Capilano College is putting course material on the web and anybody can access it for free.. I think that is brilliant.

You might think at first blush that they will be giving away their franchise. But that's not the case. People who want the deerskin on their walls will go to school and graduate. The rest of us who might be life-long learners will be able to access information in a wonderful new way.

Congrats.
