Show Description

Was in St Louis this past weekend. Talks about Pat Weaver (Former NBC President) and his admiration for him. I believe that in 20 years the world that we live in is going to be so different from the world we know today. . . It will be practically like living on another planet. Americans are constantly being criticized for being very commercial people, but in action we are not.
