But also very much on the mark. The one time I had a local TV crew come to my office to do an interview the reporter said it was too small. So we ended up going outside and the footage was shot in front of our building, which, aside from the car noises and odd looks from passersby went well--which means I didn't totally embarrass myself--or anyone else! I'm so glad they couldn't get their crew in my quarters because I'm sure the tomcats would have had their way with it. I think a better option is to do the filming in a conference room or cordoned off foyer. Or even better, at their studio. I personally prefer being able to leave as opposed to waiting for them to go. Plus, the production quality is often much better than on location. Howard,
