    This used to be called the L-5 Society, before it was sucked into
the near-term political morass...  I'm fond of Keith Lofstrom's
suggestion that we start an L-4 Society.

    The largest existing organization which comes close to what you
mention is the Space Studies Institute.  Become a member, give
everything you can, and SSI may be able to develop the tools to get
us off the planet (my standard offer of details about SSI by email
request goes here).
