The Baton (pt 1 of 3)
I am touched by all the people you have reached by your messaged, and saddened by the toll it has taken on you and your family, and in truth, I feel partially responsible.
A friend sent me your video (the orginal one not uploaded by you - some guy johnq5) a while back. I think at the time it had about 100,000 views. I found the video so interesting that I added it to my site, and to a service you may be famililar with (www.stumbleupon.com). Only I embeded your video on my blog (http://blog.bwebcentral.com/626)
Since that time your video continues to be the most popular video that my site recieves. So much, in fact, that on occasions it has brought down my webserver and I have had to make several adjustments to handle the load.
Anyway, at the time, I had no idea this single video would spawn into so much work for you, and drive your passion to educate and inform others about the global warming debate and what people can do. I greatly admire you unique use of skills as a teacher and your unique style to bring this information to the forefront of people's minds.
So while the news of your resignation maybe saddening, as well as the toll this has had on your family, please rest assured that you have made a difference for many people and will continue to do so for many years to come.
