The CCC is most definitely not a community in the sense the article was talking about. There are obviously organisations that exist for longer than a couple generations. I have attended a couple of CCC meetings and I like it a lot. But members don't organize their entire life around the CCC. It's a club. Members can attend meetings once a week, once a months or once a year. It's an entirely different thing. Nobody relies for their food supply, shelter or retirement on the CCC.
