Hey Jim,
Seth A for Outstanding Accomplishment in Poetic Hypocrisy -- why does he flip out, run pie charts, analysis of Lehman sycophants, but runs off to attend Jorie readings and says not one word about places like Tupelo? Jorie and Jeff can still do something for him and Lehman can't ?
I know you'll find a better way to present this.
Yours,
Al
