You're welcome, Lizzie.

When I write summaries of programs I'm channelling my Virgo "love of detail" Rising sign and Mars (astrological) energy. But when I make cut & paste, typos, and other proof reading mistakes that's my impatient, look at the big picture, love to share knowledge Sagittarius energy coming into play. Given that interplay of energy, I'm prone to make mistakes in my writing (as my Sun, Mercury, and Jupiter Sagittarius energy doesn't like using the Preview feature). I think that I made only made one mistake in that post-I meant to write that "I hope that interview is transcribed and posted online for those who didn't have the opportunity to hear it."

In addition to the astrological explanation, my interest in summarizing radio (or television) programs is heavily influenced by my daughter's love of sign language. My daughter isn't deaf but became interested in learning American Sign Language when she was one of a group of children in her performing arts elementary school who were selected to be part of an onstage singing/signing choir. My daughter took two sign language courses at the University of Pittsburgh and incorporates signing as part of her conversation and class room lessons with her kindergarten students. I regret that I only learned a few sign language words, but her experiences have raised my awareness about the need to have online transcripts and summaries of radio and television programs for those persons who are deaf or who have difficulty hearing, or for those who can hear but missed that program or for people who caught that program but want to read it for one reason or another.

I want to also note that there were a number of things that Bruce shared in his interview that I didn't include in my summary. As a storyteller, I really like how Bruce uses anecdotes and quotes that help people experience what he says. For instance, when Bruce was asked why he stopped performing he shared how he was tired of eating hot dogs, hamburger in town after town when he was touring. Bruce talked about being in motels or hotels that all looked the same and sometimes having to call the clerk at the motel's front desk the next morning after a performance to ask him or her which town he was in. Those kinds of make the experience real to listeners.

When Bruce talked about touring with the anti-Vietnam war Presidential candidate Eugene McCarthy campaign, he prefaced his remarks by saying that he wasn't going to talk about US politics but he then kinda talked about it anyway (I love that ploy) by sharing a quote about war and soldiers. I've been trying to remember that quote because I thought it was so profound. If Bruce or anyone else remembers what he said, would you please post it?
Thanks.
