Wish I could be there
especially since the Chapel Hill meeting will take place in my living room! I've heard there are still a few tickets available.
An interesting sidelight: My wonderful wife, Jane Brown, introduced Ms. Steinem to the student body at the University of Kentucky almost 40 years ago ... and would be introducing her again this weekend if we were able to be in town. But we'll be taking our daughter to New York to start college this weekend, and won't be here for the big event.
Go women!
