A quick note to the few people in the comments thread on this week's Intiman story who are complaining that I didn't talk to enough people:

Are you kidding me? After all those phone calls and emails, most of which went unanswered—and the ones that were answered were answered by people who said I couldn't reveal that I'd spoken to them.

And now you're complaining that I didn't talk to enough people?

Pick a lane, arts people: talk to me or not. But don't not-talk to me and then complain that we didn't talk.

But those comments aside, the thread—about nonprofits: when they work and when they don't—is smart and dynamic. I half-thought that the story would be greeted with snores.

I'm pleasantly surprised by how many people give a damn.
