Change blurb on Brain homepage

#55

I suggest we elaborate on the use of tickets and remove reference to the World Green Building Map (since this is kind of confusing and is not clear that it refers to the map view). Actually, I have a number of suggest edits to the blurb:

    I have changed this text, is there any other copy on the site that might need massaging like this, is there any case for building a method of managing this content?

    oops! There's a typo. My bad. There's a missing "and". It should read:

    "The Green Building Brain is a free and open source database of green building and planning resources. We're in the very early stages of development and fund-raising, and have released this limited beta version for your feedback. Please test it out and let us know what you think.

    Thanks. There's no other copy I'm aware of that needs changes. Not sure about the case for managing the content. Perhaps substantial changes to the copy could be managed through Zoho post?
