John, your excellent work certainly isn't going unnoticed!

I thank you not only for originally hosting the workshop, but for continuing to follow up to help it continue it's life online long after the fact. My hypothesis is that because the work entailed here is so cutting edge (and does require some reasonable work on the part of the viewer to watch, read, and cogitate) that your work today is really for the long-tail. I'm sure that there are others, like me, who weren't able to trek to Tennessee for the original, but appreciate that they can relive it online.

I'm sorry some of the videos didn't manage to come out. I'm still distraught over Harte's not being available, though I suppose that his text is a possible stand in.

Sadly, scholarly communication isn't a more sexy profession, but fortunately we have people like you who manage to do it well. I always find myself wishing that I knew 20 more people like you who had the depth and breadth of experience in physics, mathematics, and biology.

If it helps, your influence (both through this workshop and your prior posts) has prompted me to begin delving heavily into category theory in the last week, and as a result there are about 20 others who are joining me in studying it over the coming months. I know that Andrew Eckford is also in the same camp.[1][2][3] (Psst.. you might be missing some of the conversation which is taking place on Twitter.)

Thanks, as always, for the effort you've made into these (and many other) fields, which helps pave the way for those following you!
