'Off The Hook' radio program from WBAI in New York, with internet activist Aaron Swartz a guest a few months ago before his recent suicide. This show features an excerpt of that, along with part of an interview with Swartz at age 14 that underlines what a remarkable person he was. We also delved into the issue of depression in our community with excerpts from the 'Geeks and Depression' panel at HOPE Number Nine, and we had a roundtable discussion on what we can do better and where people at risk can turn.
