Jack, This was such a good photo op that that tossed baby found it's way to the local (Seattle) TV (and I hesitate to use this word) news a few days after the event. Now what I find the most curious is that I'm a pretty old guy and no matter how progressive and with it I'd like to think of myself I'm by default a Luddite. Even so I can still get a photo to you in a matter of moments. Why then does it take the "media" several days to accomplish the same thing? Not really looking for an answer.
