Could we please cut Peter Thompson a little slack? We've been hearing some complaints about the somewhat angered outgoing message on his voicemail at the 877-HANSORG hotline. Please remember that thanks to The Hanso Foundation, Thompson managed to survive inoperable lung and pancreatic cancer.

As "a direct beneficiary of Alvar Hanso's vision" (to quote his bio on the Foundation's website), we feel that the anger he showed at the attacks upon the reputations of The Hanso Foundation and its partners is completely justifiable, not to mention entirely human.
