Wow, what a wild story. I was not old enough to be in the zoo community during the days of Fausty, but I have heard his name and I remember hearing of some of his ideas, maybe seeing posts of his on the old forums in my very early years. It is an absolute shame that not many people will end up reading this unique true [although perhaps incomplete in some respects] story. I'll never know him personally enough to actually know him, but this story of his is undoubtedly relatable in many ways. It is also undoubtedly very sad.
