It represents a milestone in the mainstream perception of the CC phenomenon. Against all odds you have done it. Even though you had lots of help, you have been the prime mover and it wouldn’t have happened without you.

In addition to the technical/esthetic quality of the film it strikes just the right low key tone in arousing wonder and not provoking rejection through being too confronting of anyone’s world view. The other essential achievement has been the effort and persistence you have put into assuring it becomes widely seen.

More than ever before this is a time when America, and indeed the World need to break out of tired old reflexive thinking to take a fresh look at what we believe, what we are doing and where we are headed. What on Earth? is a gentle wake up call to arouse us from an unpleasant dream with visions of immense and mysterious beauty suggesting wonders yet to be.

Altogether a much better perspective than that which prevails a present.
