Thank you for your media bravery… Truth has been rare throughout human history and in these times, sadly, even more deformed, reshaped, and manipulated by the ever-more compressed corporate monopolists of power.

AR is always my most effective outreach vehicle. I am so indebted to you and your wonderful work. My wife Fran and I just listened on KUOW to your presentation of my University of Oregon talk. Fran, who is pretty much bored to death hearing my presentations, was beside herself with enthusiasm. I think it is the best presentation I’ve ever given and it so speaks to this moment. The fact that you are getting it out there so broadly in such an effective professional format is thrilling. David Korten, Bainbridge Island, Washington
