Thank you Christopher, i find myself in full agreement with this fellow…go figure….what you are doing is in the tradition of narrative ‘authors’ such as Studs Terkel and our own Barry Broadfoot [Ten Lost Years]…..story telling is sharing, which is the foundation of community and any possible culture…..you do good work…keep it up! B.M.
To have you recognized Studs Terkel elements was touching. He stands apart from normal media coverage.
Sometimes people don’t agree with what is recorded even from what they say. The sessions with you are ‘staying with me’ …. Looking forward .
