Thanks for the news Mark. I shared in the good fortune of meeting Gordon 
that night at the 55th big broadcast. What I admired the most was how 
despite the decades that had passed, Hamilton maintained his zeal for 
keeping the history straight and not to smooth over the rough edges that 
so often happens over time. He was a great guy to interview that day.
