“I've been having me a PhilosophersNotathon since 6:30 this morning. This is just a fabulous concept and I can't help but imagine that it's going to be a runaway success. It's also proving a mighty spur to some creative thought for me. The film and video business is currently in a downward spiral. I could sit here and blame the economy or I can direct my brain into something more productive. The thinking I've encountered on my site has my brain (and feelings) going into high gear.Thanks for this wonderful gift and for the opportunity to touch base with you. Have a joyous and rewarding holiday season and a visionary new year. Blessings and love, Burt”
“Once again, I need to thank you for such a brilliant idea. I am very passionate about reading and studying philosophies, ideas, and people who will enhance my awareness, spirituality, and life strength. There is so much that I want to read and absorb; however, being a head football coach, a school improvement coach for two schools, and a loyal and committed companion to a wonderful girl with two beautiful daughters, not to mention a person who has adopted the gym and outdoors as a physical playground, my time is limited and precious. Your philosopher's notes have allowed me to heighten my awareness of the truly great ideas and beliefs of those who have put pen to paper and I actively incorporate these beliefs, ideas, and philosophies into my daily life with astounding results. Life Is Good! God Bless You! Thanks, Jeff”
