I am the youngest of 6, and the only Seedling in my family.
NOBODY'S NORMAL: WE'RE JUST THE WAY WE'RE SUPPOSED TO BE.
Surviving a program does not mean you're fucked up.
Never having to HAVE TO survive a program does NOT make
you normal.
Each of us is as normal as we can be, all things considered.

small afterthought:   :roflmao:
I always end up comforting my family-they 'feel SOOOO bad about
what I went through' ?  How does that work, anyhow?

Greetings all.  I hope everyone is having a great holiday season, and best wishes for the upcoming year.

Evan Wright is "clevlands" younger brother.  When I say Cleveland, I mean the profilic poster on this board.

Evan is a contributing editor for Rolling stone, and wrote the book "Generation Kill" that was made into a top rated mini-season on HBO.  Evan has an engaging personality and a writing style that weaves a story by letting you get to know the characters surrounding the subject.  

I first met Evan several years ago when he called me and told me he was coming to Florida to research a story for an upcoming Rolling Stone article.  I invited him to stay in my home during the several weeks he was here, and he took me up on it.  We became fast friends and I donated all of my extensive research on the Seed for the article. I also set up a meeting between me, Evan and the director of a seed offshoot program, who allowed us to visit an open meeting, gave us a private interview complete with pics, and allowed us to even meet with the kids privately.  It was a mind blowing experience.  During the time Evan was here he also had a lunch date with Art himself.  

the Rolling Stone never ran the piece, and soon Evan was embedded in Iraq for Rolling stone, came back and wrote an award winning series on his time spent with the marines who led the charge into Iraq.  This was the basis for his book, which became the #17 best seller and eventually the mini-series.

After his well deserved success with "generation Kill", he got a book deal to write his upcoming book on The Seed.  the book should be fascinating.  I believe it will be written from first person, that is..Evan's experiences as a child druggie who makes his way to the Seed.

that is all I know.  I haven't spoken to Evan in quite some time but I wish him luck with the book and I hope he does the story justice.  maybe Cleveland can shed some more light on the project or persuade Evan to come here himself.

:jamin: Hope this book tells the truth, I was there in 1970 in Ft Lauderdale, escaped twice, captured but finaly got away. Lost one sister to them. Art, Libby, John will get theirs. Libby is now ripping off handycaped people in South Florida and Art Barker is doing a miserable death. Hope it lasts a long time.
