I should be hitting up a few concerts this spring. I can't think that I wouldn't see you at one or two of them. Thanks, Nathan. I should be hitting up a few concerts this spring.

This line is *exactly* how I feel about the non-profit sector. If we hope to create social change, we *must* always be thinking about our audience, and how that audience can best be motivated to interact and engage (with our organization(s) AND our beneficiaries), beyond simply what our budget will allow. Not all business models fit the non-profit world, but I think this "in the box" thinking when it comes to funding and assets is one that needs to be blown apart in the social sector. The "we can only do so much because we only have so much" mentality is old and non-functional.
