In memory of R. Buckminster "Bucky" Fuller
July 12, 1895 - July 1, 1983

From his last in-depth interview 3-16-83
Published as part of his obituary in "Rolling Stone":

Your ideas have not always been well received, and there have been some very difficult times in your personal life. In these times of adversity, what has kept you going?

Really one thing - love. It's that terribly serious thing, love. Which you feel for your mother and your wife and the other people around you. I say that radiation is inherently disintegrative; it comes apart. Gravity is inherently integrative; it pulls together. And to me, there's a good possibility that love is what I'd call metaphysical gravity. It really holds everything together. In my sense of the most awful times of my life, there was still that love there. I knew a lot of people loved me.

Bucky with his wife, Anne Hewlett



Senator Paul Wellstone and his wife, Sheila, were dear friends not only to myself but also friends to the American people. They spoke for the people who don't have voices in today's big business controlled government. Their deaths are not only an America tragedy, but also a tragedy for the well being of the world.

Paul and Sheila left behind thousands of like-minded friends. Their passion and dedication to their causes will not be forgotten. Their inspiration will become a stimulus for us, their friends. Better stewardship of this planet was part of the Wellstone's beliefs. This belief is the foundation of our company.

Paul and Sheila, we will "stand up and keep fighting."

-Dennis Odin Johnson
