"Trust", indeed.

You are where you are because the scene values you, your approach and your style. I don't believe it's done for clicks, hoping other readers agree with me.

You seem sincere.

I so look forward to something from your catalog—new or old—in my inbox each week Norm.

On the subject of trust especially in the crossroads of the internet and journalism I was reading an interview with the writer Dan Gardner who is working on a book with jimmy wales the creator of Wikipedia about trust I think the tentative title is called trust. What I like about this substack page is that Norman you are a respected journalist who a lot of people trust. Which is difficult to find someone on the net who is. That is why people respond to you so positively. I don’t know if you are familiar with the origin story of eBay. It originally started off as a site called webauction.com. Which was a complete failure. Then they put in a web designer who said why don’t you have a feedback forum so buyers know what sellers to trust based on past exchanges with sellers. The rest is history. Trust and Norman go hand in hand that is why anti-matter substack page is so popular. Keep on doing what you are doing.
