"The Circle City" Will Soon Encircle Me

I'm going to Vonnegut's birthplace this weekend to visit John and Sarah Green. One of my friends who doesn't know them asked me why I would choose to spend Labor Day weekend in Indianapolis and I said "Because John and Sarah Green are THAT AWESOME." (I guess any attempt at a "no offense, Indianapolis" would sound hollow. I have never been there, and I have heard it sucks. Prove everyone wrong this weekend, "Naptown"! )
Also, John and his brother Hank are really super-famous now for their Brotherhood 2.0 project and have a worldwide following of people of all ages, races, and ethnicities called "nerdfighters" who sent John hundreds of videos for his birthday, and also there is a charitable foundation involved: Swear to god.  Somebody should write about this phenomenon for The New York Times or another high-circulation national media outlet.

I will report on my awesome Two Day Indianapolis Adventure when I get back, possibly.

It's too late for the Times to do an article about it, but still not too late for the Times to do an article about the backlash.
(Fingers crossed!)
