Hanging out with Mr. Gore

On Wednesday I got to be a part of the studio audience during OPB's taping of Think Out Loud. Al Gore was the guest. I enjoyed seeing my coworkers in action and hearing what Gore had to say (turns out his favorite breakfast is blueberry waffles - though he doesn't eat them often). The link above will take you to where you can listen to the show (and see some more pictures).

You can sort of see the back of my head in this picture (last row, second person from the right).

I loved the behind the scenes stuff that I was privy to - watching the secret service agents, chatting with the news staff about what Gore talked about, etc. Even though the topic was very serious, I left hopeful that we can make a huge impact on global warming (although it's going to take a lot of work, time and everyone's help). He's an impressive man.
