RE: Best of the Block - Week 37 Entry in the Pay it Forward Contest
Thanks Jen.
Walt Whitman once said that Great Poets require Great Audiences. It is a sentiment that could extend to comics and writers in general. You are an audience member of which all poets/comics/writers dream. Thanks for the laughs.

@quillfire I think this is what I love about you. Pretty cool she at least got an automated from @berniesanders. Thought enough to do that LOL. Even better you posting your Whale Poem. Hopefully, he'll read it, the cynical bastard that he is LOL.
@tryskele,
Hi Try.
You know, I've never been able to figure out Bernie. Maybe he's the 'cynical bastard' of repute ... but maybe he's got a reason for his cynicism. Certainly I'm written a tome on all the cheating, in one manifestation or another, and how it's killing the blockchain. The problem is that the people who could stop it, Whales and Witnesses, are the ones perpetuating it.
A lot of what Bernie takes flack for is 'interrupting the cheating' (which cheaters don't like). Admittedly, he often does it with the finesses of Genghis Khan having a bad day ... but is that not a matter of style instead of substance? I'll take 'rough around the edges' over 'rotten to the core' any day.
Indeed, I'd actually be interested in interviewing Bernie to get his take on a wide range of issues respecting blockchain governance and necessary reforms. As he's now running for Witness, one would think he would be interested in such a thing.
So, @berniesanders, if you read this missive and are interested ... DM me. I'll ask tough, but fair, questions (and won't take bullshit for answers).
