Four flights on Monday (starting at 0600 and ending at 0030), two more on Tuesday (Montreal to Dulles to RDU), and two more Wednesday (RDU to Charlotte [my second home] to Indy. Only one truly big jet, and there I did get the upgrade.
Spoke Tuesday morning to about 80-100 senior executives of the helicopter industry of North America (their big international annual conference). Then toured the convention floor with my hosts. Saw some way-cool new technology.
Spoke today to another class of U.S. Government mid-career types (all agencies seemingly represented) down at UNC school (defense and business—a natch for me). Maybe 50 total. Went two hours and then maybe 45 more select Q&A.
In all, about 7 hours of public speaking to maybe 175-200 execs and senior bureaucrats/officers. I am talked out.

For you, Tom, we need to get that Quantum Leap thing figured out. When your political career begins in earnest you will need a slew of one liner sound bites that persuade the masses of a viable, human rights based grand strategy. Start refining the message into those one liners now.
