"Umbra is the most lovable and admirable advice columnist since Ann Landers. What other publication can you name would send it’s advice columnist out on the streets of New York to give bee hugs to strangers in an effort to alert us all to the disappearance of bees and the impact on our society? That took imagination, that took irreverence, it took a great and witty sense of humor.” -Bill Moyers
