Hi, Matt! Greetings from the KC Water.org office! We're so glad you're able to spread the message of clean water for all! We're currently working hard under a foot of snow to keep the gears turning.

What has been your most rewarding experience since co-founding Water.org?

Thanks, as always, for your hard work!

The aughts seem to have been the decade of a sort of faux-indie explosion; what do you see as the overarching trend of the 2010s, and will there be any way for the U.S. film industry to avoid its impending financial collapse?

I think a great deal of your success stems from your brilliantly simple and self-explanatory username (which is not to denigrate your AWESOME content in any way.)

Was there a long thought process that went into picking the account name or was it the first thing you tried? What were some others you may have thought of?

Not really sure why people keep downvoting Ramin Bahrani, but:

a) you people are fools: Man Push Cart and Chop Shop are both spectacular and represent a new beginning for both American film and independent cinema as a whole. (Disclosure: I have not yet seen Goodbye Solo)

b) Ebert will likely answer "Ramin Bahrani." As seen here:

"Bahrani is the new great American director. He never steps wrong." - Roger Ebert, "Goodbye Solo" Mar. 25, 2009

I'm assuming they're having you keep the title for the book deal? I mean, honestly, it markets itself. No need for copy. :)

Thanks for answering!
