Although I was a faithful Brat Pack follower, my favorite role of yours was in The Stand. How was filming a mini-series and portraying such a gritty character? I thought you made a terrific Fran.

ALSO (forgot) - I still have a great picture of you in a cute hat and floral suspenders. Did you always have such an individual style, or was it something you developed through wearing different costumes?

We read Forever in my Young Adult Lit. class in college, and I had forgotten how "real" it was. My students had an Independent Reading project over banned books and a lot of them read Forever. It sparked some great discussion.

What is that black ribbony stuff that waves around from under the striping after a bad winter? And why is it necessary to block off ten miles at a time when people are only working on two?

Don't know if you're still monitoring this, but on the off chance:

How much of SETI's work is part of a larger, global effort? And do you think more collaboration of this sort would result in better funding/awareness, or would it just complicate matters further? Thanks for doing this - you have such a cool job!
