That was fantastic, from the joy and longing in your voice, to the familiarity and specificity of the stories you told-- makes me wish I had taken a bit longer to reflect upon my neighborhood before I published my bit. I love the sense of youthful play, exploration, and discovery you give here-- it's no wonder that someone who grew up with 437 other kids within 125 square feet of his house has proven so adept at coalescing such a widely-dispersed group of folks into such a functional community around a shared set of ideas. I don't know what the hell Fox and Hound is (though I do know from Asses Up), but I bet you were all-in when you played it. I also am simply astounded that the code for Blackboard sprung from the same water supply that gave us you. That dialectic is just too profound for me to process right now. Also-- we missed you today at #cunyit. I think you'd feel that the event has progressed, that the ethos that we all share and argue around and that we felt was too little in evidence at previous events has grown stronger. There'll be some talk about that next week, I'm sure. Thanks Jim.
