We had an excerpt from this on a local news last night, I kept waiting to
hear the dreaded NOW statement and it was never uttered, yippee!!! Ours
only had Lawrence Gartner, and I remember thinking the same thing, I know
who *he* is, and not just as a source, I've actually almost spoken to him.
:)  I just have to wonder if those of ya'll who are *famous* in this field
still get a kick out of seeing yourselves on tv (not taking into account
the misquotes and misinformation that surely gets thrown in) or is it just
old hat by now?
