I don't know if I'm meant to click "like" on my own interview or not? But it was so much fun talking! I can't believe we went on for this long and didn't even get to the science fiction conversation! (I was just recommending "The City & the City" to someone again the other day -- such a mind-altering, great book, and one you got me to read.)

Thank you. You have introduced me to some refreshingly original thinking. In this world of being snowed under by the sheer weight of the internet, the “Cloud” and the never disappoints world of social media - it is a welcome event. So much of what we prattle on about is a rehash of partially digested, poorly imagined swill.

How do we recognize some sort of truth? It makes us feel as if we just were transported into the natural world of fresh air and a scent of healthy soil from some dark dank dungeon of a city.

My understanding of land ownership and the importance of walking stems from the time the State of California stole my childhood home using Eminent Domain. My old homestead became a center of the Interstate freeway system and a Bart Station.

This led to a lifetime of rediscovering the value of walking. Among other things.
