Many of you may have seen this quote in various obituaries of Paul Harvey.
 It may not be a "great" quote but it sort of comes under the category of
a previous thread about how long we've been around . . . and, I thought it
was a nice one:

"I don't think of myself as a profound journalist. I think of myself as a
professional parade watcher who can't wait to get out of bed every morning
and rush down to the Teletypes and pan for gold."

Teletypes, computer keys and maybe radio itself should go quiet for a
moment to honor the man who for three-quarters of a century watched the
parade and, strutting and smiling, helped lead it.

(We've probably all encountered those recently who feel that teletypes
have already gone silent.  . .  . . )
