It's Been a While
I have been in full tilt crazy busy mode since Wednesday that began with a DBI inspection of my building as it is transformed from TIC to condo (good news for me, albeit with fees, inspectors peeking into closets and cabinets, and a lot of repairs). Thursday I made a quick day trip to a memorial for a 92-year-old donor who was an amazing, liberal spirit, having campaigned for Upton Sinclair in the 1930s as a college student.This weekend I have been speaking at screenings of the new Sundance documentary Flow: For Love of Water. It's definitely worth checking out. To date I've not talked much about my work life here but am rethinking that. I've thought about launching a parallel site for that and maybe one for Guru. But, well, there's not that much time in a day.
Check out Flow here and consider signing Article 31 of the UN Universal Declaration of Human Rights. It takes two seconds, and it could be your contribution to saving a life halfway across the globe. Go here to sign on.

thanks for the head's up on both the documentary and the petition site. a very, very important issue. I've signed the petition and will help spread the word!
it's always good when a little bit of your work sneaks onto your blog.
congrats on the building transformation....
the donor sounds like he/she was an amazing individual! there's a 'work story' I'd be interested in reading more about!
take care and SEE YOU SOON!!
Mouse - Thanks for spreading the word. It opens in Cleveland in October, and we plan to have a presence there. One of my "minions" as you call them will likely be there and you can meet her. Looking forward to the meet up.
details, details.... I'll be there and will post a note on the mouse's sidebar!
it must be nice to have a minion! and what exactly is a minion?
Mouse - I've no idea what a minion is. That's your word not mine. (Grins)
GREAT.
As if the world isn't already falling apart, now u must remind us that WATER will be the new PETROLEUM of the 21st century!
Wars will be fought over this! EEK!
Canada will be rich! FILTHY RICH!
WAT - Done blame me, the issue was started by others. A rich Canada isn't such a bad thing.
Hey Gregg!
I'll admit now that I'm a longtime stalker. I'll be a bit less creepy about it now that you know I exist!
Funny how I hate stalkers on my blogs, but I get all stealth on everyone else's
Lora - Stalk away! Just no unflattering tabloid photos of me on the beach or coming out of a sleazy bar.
