To give the group another history lesson, I brought up the Gettysburg Address. 272 words (or 271, depending on who is doing the counting, and everybody knows the reference.

The primary speaker spoke for about 2 hours, then the organizers let an unpopular President Lincoln up on stage for some brief remarks. Who was the other speaker? Some guy who could keep talking for 2 hours without stopping. Sort of like a forerunner of cable news chat shows.
