A few weeks ago, just before World Maker Faire, I was able to steal a few minutes with Bill Livolsi and Jimmy Diresta. They were kind enough to allow me to run them through the 5 questions.

MWA 5 Questions - Brian McCauley
Brian's answers prompted a fun discussion ranging from tools to styles to the work of Art Carpenter.
Unfortunately, Art's book, Education of a Woodsmith, appears to be out of print. I highly recommend you pick up a copy at Lee Valley while you can, as I can't quite endorse the $299.00 price tag on Amazon.
