My real name is Tom Stohlman. Frank Lloyd Wright and I are Architects. Someday, when I grow up, I hope to be as good as Mr. Wright.
For more of me, I've attached some excerpts from the other forum:
I like science and photography and hiking, among many other things. All of you teenagers and young adults should recognize the patter of a parent in my rambles (pedantic explanations and strong desire to give away free advice). I’m a lapsed Catholic who was taught to explore other religions as well as my own.
My YouTube indoctrination started after the World Cup finals. My son was showing me the Zidane Headbutt Variations and I started exploring. Something called "Proving Science Wrong" (Science wrong??? Never!) caught my eye and I was hooked.
I was especially intrigued by a self-proclaimed voracious reader, with an interest in science, photography, and hiking. Heavens, she even quotes ee cummings and has a Hopper on the wall! The very picture of dork chic.
Then came Bree the Enigma. Why bother editing in controversy (mysterious religion) when you claim not to want to discuss it? Is this real or is this fiction?
I 've loved TV since Ed Sullivan and Howdy Doody. This YouTube phenomena is something special. We choose to watch. We choose to participate. We talk at the Tube and the Tube talks back. Not only that, if something we see interests us (Pick your product, religion, or political cause), we can actually research the subject in the next window on the computer screen (No thanks, Thelema's not for me).
I’m still thinking, no, hoping for “the creative genius of a couple of precocious teens or twenty-somethings with a script, video camera, and behind-the-scenes editor, no matter their motive or end game”. A real Bree will be so much more interesting than a fake one.
I hope we err on the side of a real Bree in our pursuit of the answer.
Pleased to Meet You All,

Big Black Storm Clouds
I remember clinging to my Dad's shoulders and we were tromping up this hill... and my Dad told me something really incredible was going to happen. There's these big black storm clouds above you. You're waiting and everybody is completely silent suddenly it just starts pouring down with rain, with like big thick droplets of rain, really amazing.
