I was working at the college radio station and did one of those "we interrupt this broadcast" announcements. Six months earlier JFK gave the commencement address at my school and I was close enough to see him perspire in the June heat. A few months after that, I was on the crew that covered Dr. King's speech at the Lincoln Memorial. I've seen some history. I'm not sure I want to see what comes next.
