thank you, jerry, for doing just that. very humbling. jerry herman wanted to make people hum, bill t. jones wanted to open their eyes and make them move. the youngest of 12 children, bill's parents were migrant workers, poorer than poor, who made a living picking fruits and vegetables up and down the east coast. early on bill struggled to find his identity in a segregated world where he often felt like he didn't belong. then he began to dance. still like to say a good dancer has arts, guts, strength, intelligence and personality and he's been blessed with plenty of each. as the co-founder of the bill t. jones artisan and dance company, bill has won widespread acclaim and artistic success in the hyper competitive world of modern dance, all while battling poverty and home phobia and racism. his unique performances have always been productive, challenging audiences to confront important issues in a way that's a once captivating, agitating and extremely personal. to date he's created over 140 works on subjects ranging from terminal illness t

jerry is correct that they still don't have that authority today. we think everyone has an obligation. you're doing business business in the state in the concept of a physical presence doesn't really have the same meaning as it did back in 1992 and the first time they did this in 1967 simply because it was so much easier to do business today than before. fedex and ups and what remains of the post office make connecting business in this country extremely easy. i mean, you don't have to own the merchandise to sell anymore. you don't have to do almost anything to be a retailer today. in 25 years ago that was the case. if you wanted to be retailer 25 years ago you had to put the money in, by the inventory, keep people employed and that's not the same now. i mean, there are companies who specialize in fulfillment. i can give you 25% of my sales and you'll own all my inventory. you will be 100% responsible for shipping inventory. all you have to do is send sales to you and you'll do everything else. you can sit in your office in downtown minneapolis and s

i do believe, though, that jerry is right. it is not enough to talk about it amongst ourselves. it is a larger public dialogue that needs to happen in terms of the resources, the jury pool, and that means talking to people who identify more with victims. we now there are one in 100 people behind bars. that means one in 100 people knows somebody connected to the criminal justice system. that is a tremendous opportunity for us. that means there are people in every sector of society who identify with our cause. that is when people start to understand the import of the public defender. i know very well not mind me saying this, but for the last 20 years, they have been talking about the innocent man who has been wrongly accused, and everyone thinks that is a terrible tragedy. nobody would think that that is right in america. but their message release started to sing when they shifted. we were working with them on this, at court tv, and i was the first reported to be covering the innocence project on a national basis. the message really started to sing when they talked about victims,

we thought what a great thing it would be to have an ampitheater named after jerry garcia. that is a name that has panache. it brings people from all over the bay area to the ampitheater. the calls that come in, we'd like to do a concert at the jerry garcia ampitheater and we do everything we can to accommodate them and help them because it gets people into the park. people like a lot of color and that's what they call a park. other people don't. you have to try to reconcile all those different points of view. what should a park look like and what should it have? should it be manicured, should it be nice little cobblestones around all of the paths and like that. the biggest objective of course is getting people into the park to appreciate open space. whatever that's going to take to make them happy, to get them there, that's the main goal. if it takes a planter with flowers and stuff like that, fine. you know, so what? people need to get away from that urban rush and noise and this is a perfect place to do it. feedback is always amazement. they don't believe that it's in sa
