Joe,
You are an inspiration to all who have an innate need to dig beyond the surface of things. I feel lucky to have, with the help of the internet, tangentially graced the same little corner of the planet with you.
The following are not my words (and are rather plagiarized), but I find them fitting.
Here's to the crazy ones.
The misfits.
The rebels.
The troublemakers.
The round pegs in the square holes.
The ones who see things differently.
They're not fond of rules
And they have no respect for the status quo.
You can praise them, disagree with them, quote them,
disbelieve them, glorify or vilify them.
About the only thing that you can't do is ignore them.
Because they change things.
They invent. They imagine. They heal.
They explore. They create. They inspire.
