When I was a child I was at a Duke graduation event, and was sitting around waiting for it to end so I could go play, and a old guy sat down next to me and said "Hi! I'm Jimmy. Who are you?" and proceeded to talk with me for the next 30 minutes or so.
I had no idea who he was, and I have no memory of the conversation, but I have been told that he was relieved to find someone to talk to with about anything other than politics.
Thank you for keeping a little boy entertained on a summer afternoon long ago, among the countless other things you have done to make the world a more welcoming and caring place.
