People who understand the importance of sustainable living. Love warriors. People who participate in drumcircles in some way or another. People who need/want their pictures taken. People who rock (including but not limited to punks). Hippies. Hipsters. Shakers. Spinners. People who love science. Astronomers. Biologists and botanists. People who aren't so good at math. Wake and bakers. Responsible mothers. Tree huggers. Venezuelans. Storytellers. Smilers. Wealthy benefactors. Anyone willing to finance my world travels and publication of coffee-table books and propaganda leaflets. Transformers. People who say "yes." Lifelong students. People who study the media and communications. Anyone who's finished Gravity's Rainbow. Natural mystics. People who wear and like the smell of patchouli. Daily walkers.
