there have been many people and i want to talk about michael rosenthal, who is here and he was a collective member for 35 years. he really helped to get the store started, it was an all- volunteer collective and he was part of that. for all of those years, he kept the store going, and i feel like the commendation is really for michael. there have been over 150 -- 160 or even more people who actually have been working at the store. this is in the last 40 years. we received this in their honor as well. plus, all of the amazing writers, poets and political people who have come through the store, writing these things that we can sell to people and the community, that they want to purchase and read. but also to have made this a community space, for all of those people, and the incredible bay area community that kept us alive, we have the most loyal customer base. the customer base has a kind of welty to us. we're just grateful that this community has seen fit to make us a community space, and people keep coming there and being there, making this a wonderful exchange of ideas, and art. thank you
