Bob,

I would love to take credit for this site, but Dave is the one who maintains National Salvation.

ME:

Continue trying to keep me straight, I hope I'll get it right eventually.

I appreciate the fact that our people are dedicated to the cause, not to getting credit.

I will change the wording below. I'll probably goof it up again.

My brother is a doctor. He can make the stupidest mistakes in everyday life, but he can be waked up in the middle of the night and get the most compliated drugs straight for a particular patient standing there at the phone. I can deal with the most complex political matters in an emergency or write a piece that takes professional skill, but I can't get three names straight.
