      Hi Scott, Thanks for the update. So sorry that your duties and commitments are keeping you so busy, but I'm sure everyone understands that you can only do what is possible at this point. Everyone is so eager to see the film that it's difficult to wait but I'm sure it will be worth it. In the meantime, hey, the Tee shirt looks fantastic! ha ha

      Thanks to Dorothy, Roger, Kathi and Michelle for your support and enthusiasm! Dorothy, I recall Jeff discussing John a fair number of times in his book. We'll be interviewing Pam Walatka and others in January and will be sure to ask about John.

      Scott,
      I am an avid backer of your project and have just calculated that if everyone who donated adds a mere $32 dollars to their current pledge, we can go over your goal by $60. I am challenging anyone who reads this to do this and more so you can start planning your next shoot in the upcoming week.
