Patch Adams is a doctor, who addressing the incompatablity of capitalism
and caring, wants free and silly healthcare. Patch uses fun as a tool for
social change. Changing society with passsion and persistence so that we
don't make the world uninhabitable for people.
Patch founded the Gesundheit Institute in 1971 and has been working since
then to make it, a free and silly hospital, happen. The hospital is
currently in its first phase of construction. Gesundheit Insititute is
located in West Virginia.
Patch can also be found circling the globe, giving joy workshops, clowning
in refuge camps and orphanages, and giving complainers revolution.
For our conversation this Thursday Patch has been prompted to speak on

Please come with a brief (1-2 min.) description of the projects you are
working on so that we will all know what each other are doing.
