George-

Congratulations on getting your credentials! I enjoyed the photos and the political celebrity sightings. Too bad the Democrats didn't let a thousand flowers bloom. But I did enjoy your report on the Pink ?

I heard Al Sharpton on the radio. I had some guests who thought they were hearing a dispute outside on the sidewalk when he was talking. But when they started listening to what he was actually saying they loved it. No doubt there were other authentic moments at the convention but none so unhomogenized.

Best wishes,
