Excellent doesn't begin to describe your adventure!

You both really deserved it, and what a labor of love to write it all up so we could share it with you.

Thanks so much,

Paul

Yeehaw!  Thanks so much for this!  What an amazing experience.  I'm glad you talked with him a bit about the phenomenon of these online forums/ communities.  And, I was particularly fascinated to read about his memories connected to the picture included in the soundtrack CD case.  Hearing that kind of story straight from Jake just seems so special... I mean it's the kind of thing that truly only Jake would know.

Whoa - in Part 5, Jake describes his experience at the Aero Theatre on Feb 13, 2006.  I was there.  That's amazing.
