Show Description
Shep is quietly reflective, more serious than usual. He talks about the folly of a "clean h-bomb", the ghosts of the ancient Greek and Gothic civilizations in the architectural details of the old buildings in Manhattan, and the story of a man whose crowning moment was catching a foul ball at a White Sox game. 6,000 years from now we'll all be gone Mentions the Soviet National Exposition in New York
