Yes, that’s him. “The Square and the Tower” is good too. Also a short video series version.

Thank you for honing your perceptions to a razor sharp edge and sharing a big picture view of the moving parts. You add light and not heat, and our nation needs as much light as it can get, right now.

I quote the Knuttson Morrison unintended consequence in BTF.

Flow well
