Tom Nies "Good stories fascinate us all. They always have. They always will.

At this moment in our nation’s history, we are seeing two epic stories evolving—in terms of our new President, and in the state of our economy.

The story of Obama many believe is epic, and certainly the story of our nation’s recession and economic downfall is also a burgeoning epic tale.

Stories move societies forward. They inspire, engage and initiate change through their telling and re-telling. Basically, there are two types of stories: Truth Stories and True Stories."
