Is it merely a temporary phenomenon?

Will America bounce back?

I just don't know.

I really, really don't know.

And if it does, it will take a long time because of the damage that's been done.

It's going to give you a lot to write about, isn't it?

Yes, I guess so.

Thank you very much for joining us.

Thank you.

It's lovely to be here and to talk with you again.

Thank you.

I just realized later that his face in this photograph was just so unbelievably ordinary.

just the most ordinary looking face and I just stared at it because it was, and he looked pleasant and ordinary, had these big wire rimmed glasses and his last name was Dam, D-A-M-M.

And I just remember that face and the name Dam

And then at some point afterwards, a few months, maybe it was a year, I don't know.

But I realized Artie Dam with one M. And then I explained in the book why it only has one M. Yeah.

And that was Artie.
