Draw this dude into your networks and communities and keep him engaged. If he leaves for some other place like Atlanta or Eugene or Arcata or London because principled, active, artistic, adventurous, fun, delicious people didn't reach out when he smiled - I'll have to do some sort of over the top penitential cleanse to get over the residue of my contribution to his leaving.
Look at his picture, there's almost no smile left - that's almost a full scale natural disaster. Try as I might, I don't count, I've lost my principles and besides, I'm family. He's a very beautiful metalworking rock climbing artist/appropriate technologist/activist soul.
Can't buy that boys and girls.
