The generous contribution you made last year to Verse Video Education is now in use (we've hired our new editor!). Once he helps us to plow through the work of this year, we'll begin to look forward to crafting educational content on the literature of art, sport and play (these materials now including footage from recent shoots with Shaquille O'Neal, Yo Yo Ma, Cynthia Nixon, Bono and others). 100K makes so much possible. But, of course, you've also been a key preceptor as I've learned how --squirming all the way--the sausage really gets made in public television. | can't say I've been entirely successful in taming costs there, but I've been far better armed and more mindful of what they should be after the stern tutorial you administered.

Would he meet with me? Kosher? I'd also love to meet with the Blacks as | get closer to making content on theatre. | hope that Debra is well. And heard there's another little Jeff in the caribbean...
