Tons of leads.

Start with the links in my signature file below.

Add in:

The Straw Bale Association of Texas 
(http://www.greenbuilder.com/sbat/) Meets the fourth wednesday of 
each month - that's this week, if you're available.)

The Austin Sustainable Building Coalition 
(http://www.greenbuilder.com/sbc/)( site currently being radically 
updated... currently doing site visits once a month.  Email 
sbcnews@lists.greenbuilder.com to get notified of upcoming events)

and of course
The Austin Green Building Program (http://www.ci.austin.tx.us/greenbuilder/)

You just missed the Earth Day Cool Home Tour (run by the Texas Solar 
Energy Society, http://www.txses.org).  Oh well.

Stir well.  Cogitate.

Mix in a visit to the Renewable Energy Roundup in Fredricksburg, 
weekend of 9/22, and the International Green Building Conference in 
Austin in November.  See the Calendar listed below for more info on 
both of them.

PS: Which other list was that on?
