Proof that the Internet is a huggy sort of place after all.

The Pledge Site. Some sample pledges:

I will create the angel of the south west but only if 12 other people will help me plan design and make it and find somewhere for it to go.

I will stay in the inner most lane of the M25 it is safely possible to. But only if 50 other M25 users will do the same and learn from it.

I will stop buying from corporate stores but only if 50 people will too.

I will Turn all my electrical appliances off stand by (TV, HiFi, etc) but only if 50 other people will too.
