From the transcript
I got a chance to go down and visit her in Alamos, spent a bunch of time with her and being able to hear directly from her some of those stories. And so that was pretty special to me, and I want to continue to share those with others as well. Yeah, no, that's— I'm so glad that you suggested adding her to the book. So we've had a question or two, and one of them is, does the book Alaska Migrant Innovators touch on the challenge of fish safety when considering hydrosystems such as run-of-the-river systems? And that's an interesting point because we should point out there are two Indigenous voices in the book, Alexander Salmon and Ed Byfeld, and the one that's relevant to this question is the community of Iggyagi, who has, as you mentioned, hydrokinetic technologies.
