      Yes, he inspires such confidence in his abilities.  I don’t think he’d write 50 books in a year, but maybe 50 pages.

      at first I thought this was Mark Leidner and I was like “Mark Leidner has written a book” but then I realized it was Mark Baumer and I was like “give this man some money”

      Mark Baumer walked across America. Mark Baumer is a good person.
