I'm reminded of a quote by George Washington Carver that goes, "When you can do the common things of life in an uncommon way, you command the attention of the world".

First, let me say that I am both humbled and honored about winning the dotComm Platinum Award for the "Shefik presents Invocation" radio show, for the segment I did on "Revolution", in the 25th episode. Shefik's vision for the nationally syndicated "Invocation" radio show epitomizes the aforementioned quote, and it was a pleasure to work with him and watch him work. He is truly deserving of this award.
