Wendell Berry

I joined the Wendell Berry Society on Facebook and came across this video of the man speaking at a February 2008 rally in support of the mountains of Kentucky (against the ravaging of said mountains by the coal interests). I have never seen him speak so was fascinated to hear the voice that accompanies the pen. Unfortunately, not all will know of Berry or why he is so important, but someday, when he is gone and his pen is silenced, these videos will be priceless. Amazingly, searching for "Wendell Berry" on YouTube turns up only this video. Is it possible, as much as he speaks, that he has not been video'ed?
