Review of Keeping Secrets


A piece about one of the more mysterious sides of random communicaton - including the internet, which, honestly, is normally absolutely everything BUT mysterious. Aaron Henkin reports on this interesting project involving postcards and secrets and folks like you and me - at the center of it is this rather compassionate character for whom the project seems to have become nearly a way of life. I was thinking that this piece is a bit long, at 17 minutes, but yet there seems to be more and more to say. Then I was thinking about sending a postcard myself. Thinking about it leads to that, somehow. WHY?
