Dozens of luminaries in a host of fields are featured, including my boss, mad scientist Paul Stamets. The film is as much about solutions as it is about problems, which makes it somewhat unique in the genre. The entire Fungi Perfecti crew will be at the debut this Friday at the Egyptian Theater, including myself and Margaret. Paul will be taking part in a Q&#038;A session afterwards. If anyone is interested, feel free to show up; it should be a good time.<\/p>\n<p>EDIT: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thestranger.com\/seattle\/Content?oid=297438\">The Stranger&#8217;s review<\/a> of the film is pretty positive:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The concrete and warring policy proposals that crowd the end of the film are exactly what you were thirsting for at the end of <em>An Inconvenient Truth<\/em>.
