What David Casey, of MD&C Ads (Connecticut) said about my videos and me: "I think you have an arresting persona, not quite a straight man, or pitchman, but a spokesman with a touch of restrained or polite lunacy. Very smoky but no fire damage. No on-camera threat to a trusting child or a working man or housewife, or conventional wisdom but an added dimension to the commonplace, or a calming place where new truths emerge. But somehow a threat to pomposity and arrogance, or a fool. So you can be a truth-finder as contrasted to a fact-finder. Facts are boring, Truth is exceptional. Actually, you remind me of Ernie Kovacs." What Suzyn Dee Hutton Kelley said: "Joel, there is something so ineffable, [calming yet zingy?] about your videos!"
