As always, thanks for listening.
I see that you live on what's called a hobby farm outside of Nashville and that you do beekeeping, yes?
I think people of good intentions can make mistakes.
They can be drawn into actions that are counterproductive, that are even counter to what their expressed views and wishes would be.
And
My job is to try to tell the bigger story, to tell the human story behind some of these concerns so that I don't want to leave readers with a sense of cynicism.
I think it's important to view the world as it is, but to also to try to generate a sense of hopefulness about what it can be by exposing bad actions and trying to correct them and also pointing out where things in the future might benefit from some of the work that's being done.
We're very privileged to live here.
It's a spectacular area with usually a wonderful climate.
Sure.
Thanks for that question, John.
