I just got a big boost

Yesterday I felt inexplicably sad. Down. Really uncharacteristically folorn.
And then today I heard that I have been elected to be a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts (which means I'm now MBK RI., FRSA) and I feel like a million dollars. Its a place where I hope to be able to explore creative thought with a view to making a real difference in the lives of people here in chicago around the world. Like my sock project that I talked about with some of you last year. Check it out at http://www.thersa.org
