I recently attended a dinner honoring Yvon Chouinard, the founder of Patagonia. He was being inducted into the Mountaineering Hall of Fame. If you knew him and knew the history of Pacific Iron Works and eventually Patagonia, you'd know how perfectly he fits into your questions above. Long story, but his company has been a tool for social change and environmental stewardship, which evolved because of Yvon's love for the environment. He is what he sells. And it is his dharma, just as Victor Frankl so eloquently expressed. Melissa Very interesting post, Ryan (and DW). I recently attended a dinner honoring Yvon Chouinard, the founder of Patagonia.
