Beyond all the bombast and charm, he is a great patroit and a far too rare business leader, willing to both speak truth without regard to PR flackery and to put his money where his mouth is. A great philanthropist and a great American.

Turner's view of Governments being monopolies, and his view of the US Government being hypocritical concerning nuclear power, is candid and I appreciate him for admitting it. I have to admit I was unaware of the majority of his philanthropy work, before watching the program.

What a visionary man. I had no idea. The thought that we can create a world in which future generations are living "in paradise on Earth" is beautiful.
I walked past some garbage bags on the sidewalk today. I used to pick up garbage. I thought it mattered. But then I lost any kind of hope that we aren't killing the planet. No one else seemed to give a sh** But Ted does!
I now feel guilty (again) about not picking up garbage and all of the other things you and I know about but haven't done - like caring about the fact of nuclear weapons. But we will.
