Every now and then I say that the advice people On Here give Democratic politicians is bad because if you promise the moon people might expect you to deliver and anyway let's see if there's any negative effects created by setting expectations high.

P. Adams Sitney 1944-2025
A true individual, affable/irascible, generous/opinionated, totally brilliant & always accessible. Out of the blue, he gave me 2 breaks--one lead to a book, Midnight Movies, the other to a 22 year gig at Cooper Union--& a wealth of background material for Everything is Now

Do you know Richard Holmes’s Dr Johnson & Mr Savage? The most gripping biography I’ve ever read.
