This article was perfect timing Mr Crawford. No need to reply. Just wanted to say, thank you, I love your work and your encouragement to readers to keep learning, researching for ourselves inspires. While I can't keep up, have limited time and/or cannot understand and follow everything, I find your articles both fascinating and full of incredible research and revelation.

Much appreciated.

At your "I may not even read them" warning, I'll take the opportunity to wax philosophical.

When I comment, its usually from a place of excitement to share. As a person, I feel deeply much of what you are concerned about and appreciate some of the clearest and sharpest attempts to peer; even when it makes you stand out as a target.

Just knowing a guy like you exists (and by the way your face reminds me of my cousin), is motivating to me.

It is always my wish that my comments might make you feel something similar.

We are out there, working, perhaps not as vocal as you, but thousands of us I am sure. Thank you. Bless you. You do you, because we are doing "us". And everyday we are less fooled.

So if it ever expedient to ignore me, please do. I often comment quickly and then think all afternoon about your articles.

So much good stuff here. I met the alternun team at COP16 in Cali, Colombia - will probably see if I can help them tokenize unmined minerals (gold) in Colombia.
