Did you like them? Which was best? Sonja Sohn supplied enough of a change-up for me. Her talk and performance, delivered by a trained actress with a great deep voice, were terrific, i thought.

Tyler's talk was my favorite as well. One thing to point out: the people attending this event decided beforehand that they were going to have a good, awesome, enlightening time, and I think that's one main reason why it was so successful. All we had to do on the day of the event is provide a nice atmosphere for that to happen and avoid mistakes. What did you think of the musicians? I thought they provided nice counterpoint to the speeches. -Mike Hi Fern,

A few of the speakers, particularly Sohn, could have used some coaching on how to deliver a presentation. Though her material was compelling, her delivery was rambling and needed a lot of polish, and I'm not a big fan of the heavily emoting slam-poetry she ended with. Joel Salatin's talk was by far the best—rousing, personal, and powerful.
