Hey, you, the person reading this comment thread who just skimmed over the above comment without giving the video link a second thought.

I'm telling you, go back and watch the video, or any other video on Tony Santoro's channel. The man is a legend who deserves more press. He absolutely embodies the hacker ethos, if in his own unique way. Autodidactic, anti-authoritarian, fiercely intelligent, sharply witty and indefatigably individualistic.

Seconded, and his series in the Atacama is incredible.

Seriously, he's incredible.

I enjoyed this profile of him in Chicago local TV.

"For around the country mostly illegally riding freight trains" and "being exposed to a variety of ecosystems" piquing his knowledge, and reading science books in the libraries where he went, is quite refreshing.
