Wendell Berry, "Manifesto: Mad Farmer Liberation Front."

Thanks to both of you!  I got my classroom yesterday and met some of the folks I will be working with.  Really excited to get started there =)

John - we long-haired farmers have to stick together, you know ;)

And yes, Rick - have to love the Henry James!
