Well, I dunno about that!

You remember Ellen Crossen? In 1959 or so, she and I went to a Harry Belafonte concert held at the Orpheum theater (no longer there) in downtown Seattle. But before the concert, we had dinner in the dining room of the Benjamin Franklin hotel, about half a block from the theater. As we are sitting there stuffing our faces, Ellen's eyes got wide and she said, "Take a look over your right shoulder." I did, and there at the next table was Belafonte and about five other people, including Millard Thomas, his guitar accompanist.

Probably the whole crew was staying at the Ben Franklin. Very convenient to the theater.

They left before we did (undoubtedly to get ready to do the concert) and they walked right by our table.

(How many points is that worth?)
