Another step in this thread creep dance: Art, I lived at the Coast in 1967! From 1964 through 1968 the first time (I went back in the '80s). I lived first in Gleneden Beach then in the Cutler City area and then Taft. (For others' info, the latter two are part of Lincoln City)

I like the Oregon Coast a lot and that is where I'd wish to move if I returned to Oregon. Which isn't likely. I like Juneau even better.

I agree about Wayne Morse. Morse and Justice William O. Douglas were two of my heroes. As was Governor Tom McCall.

So many heroes. So much time and and so much water under the bridge.
