Fr Rutler is another wonderful priest.I haven't heard too much of him over the last few years.I use to go and hear at conferences given by St.Joseph's Communications.I came across a little tidbit last night showing him giving last rites to fire fighters at,I think,Ground 0.

Ah, the joys of listening to Fr. Rutler speak! He used to preach at St. Agnes in NYC on the Last Words on Good Friday, and the church was packed and totally silent for three hours while he addressed his "theme." He would pick a different "theme" each year - once, I recall, it was the Seven Wonders of the World - and with incredible learning (and an incredible knowledge of high-level trivia!), work them into a truly stunning set of meditations.
