Working as an interior designer in Greenwich Village during culturally and politically exciting times, Elliot felt empowered by the gay rights movement, but he remained staked to the family business – a dumpy motel called the El Monaco. Upon he...aring that a planned music and arts festival had lost its permit, Elliot called producer Michael Lang at Woodstock Ventures to offer his family’s motel to the promoters and generate some much-needed business. Elliot also introduced Lang to his neighbour Max Yasgur (Eugene Levy), who operated a 600-acre farm down the road. Soon the Woodstock staff was moving into the El Monaco – and half a million people were on their way to Yasgur’s farm for “3 days of Peace & Music in White Lake.” With a little help from his friends, including recently returned Vietnam veteran Billy (Emile Hirsch) and cross-dressing ex-Marine Vilma (Liev Schreiber), and with a little opposition from townspeople, Elliot found himself in a generation-defining experience that would change his life – and popular culture – forever.Read More

Cathy Buchanan who grew up in Niagara Falls and is the author of "The Day The Falls Stood Still" will be at the Victoria Avenue Library on Saturday November 7th at 2 pm. She will read from her book and present a slide show. "The Day the Falls Stood Still" is set in Niagara Falls in 1915, and the male character centra...l to the plot was inspired by local hero, William “Red” Hill, Niagara’s most famous riverman.
Much of Cathy's research was done right here in the Niagara Falls Public Library, she comments "The text on the cover of "The Day the Falls Stood Still" reads “Steeped in the intriguing history of Niagara Falls, this is an epic love story as rich, spellbinding and majestic as the falls themselves.” Any reader who finds the statement the tiniest bit true should know that without the Niagara Falls (Ontario) Public Library, The Day the Falls Stood Still would have been a lesser book."Read More

While at the meeting feel free to explore beyond traditional dialogue. If you have any form of artistic expression you feel is related to "the internet" and your views on it, i.e. poetry, pictures, song... bring it along.
Considerations for discussion
Has the internet changed your life?
How often do you utilize the intern...et?
Are there any detrimental effects caused by the internet or has everything been positive?
For what is the internet mostly utilized?
Should the internet be controlled and censored like television and radio?
What kind of impact has the internet had globally?
From the printing press to radio to television to the internet, what's next?
Got internet?
The facilitator will be jim agar.
"The Internet is based on a layered, end-to-end model that allows people at each level of the network to innovate free of any central control. By placing intelligence at the edges rather than control in the middle of the network, the Internet has created a platform for innovation."
Vinton Cerf
"There are managers so preoccupied with their e-mail messages that they never look up from their screens to see what's happening in the nondigital world."
