Thank you for the beautiful sentiment : ) I have a good friend that's been at PIXAR for many years and have been fortunate to have several tours of their campus as well. I'd love to talk to you about our common interest in what PIXAR represents, so please contact me privately when you get a chance. Regarding Darioush, I don't know what it is, but I'm going to find out! It was great meeting you at the Global Footprint Network Board meeting dinner! Hi Buddy, nice to hear from you!

I believe you do that with people in your every day life. I wanted wish you the Best of The Holidays and hope you have a reason to cheer in the New Year.....I would recommend "Darioush" it is like drinking silk.

We have you (and Bill, and Doug, etc. etc.) to thank for this, so kudos to all. As I take a deep breath from submitting my digital media learning competition app into the MacArthur Foundation/HASTAC crew, with a gazillion tech glitches and last minute flamethrowers (e.g. Sky was my recommendation letter, but he caught the fact that since I also contract w/him for pay it might red flag bias, so I had to go to Plan B!) I feel like I slid into a linoleum kitchen with socks on within a hair of the deadline...whew. Alas, it's but one of many forges forward, but it was a biggie for me, as we seemed to have all kinds of gonzo twists and turns that landed us in new places...and I'm now at peace that 'whatever happens' I'm better for it, as my project will come to fruition with or without the human capital and follow through...that's what passionistas like us are for! ;-) Anyway, thank you for your ongoing leadership, vision and grace. I think of you and our NextNow family of 'human capital' as I dart hither and yon in a blur reminding myself of Richard Louv's comments from last week to 'stop' and listen to the world around you. See you soon--Amy J.
