Ken is a unique individual.

I've spoken to Ken countless times on the phone discussing site changes and migrations (I help host his site) and one thing is certain...how he writes is how he is. He's an honest man who tells it like it is...and in doing so inspires those of inaction to action.

I've known Ken since 2004 and am happy to call him my personal friend.

I have only spoken to him couple of times but from our time together here as fellow editors in 2005 to now I have had many many e-mail conversations with him and for my part, feel is a friend mine. And I do not throw the word' friend' around lightly like many people today do.

Ken writes as he speaks, from the heart, like for real even..

I don't know Ken well enough to call him friend. I consider that an unfortunate state of affairs, but given that he's half way across the country, our opportunities for meeting in person are few and far between. Hopefully we'll meet in person some day.
