[M. Thatcher]

Sometimes people tend to forget just how much he MUST have to ad lib----that many hours, that many days, and to have so many facts to answer phone calls with----it's just amazing. I don't know how he does it!

He is utterly amazing. He does make an occasional minor slip in a detail, but it is very rare, and his larger point is always correct. His memory is phenomenal, and is ability to come up with a profound and original analysis ON THE SPOT day in and day out is unrivaled.

He ad libs it all. There are no scripts.

It's tough to be human.

Wha-hoo, Rush!
