      I love hearing from you and knowing how much you're getting out of this trip. And, to my surprise, Kickstarter was written about in today's New York Times Magazine. I hope somebody saves it for your reading pleasure upon your return. By the way, I was "turned on" to your quest and request by an old friend who used to live in Chicago and is now in Tennessee.
