It is rare that Priness naturalist have face time. Today (May 7, 2013), though I met with Michael Modzelewski and some of the home office personnel for a brainstorming session in LA. Michael is the gentleman who inroduced me to the cruise line speaking "business," and he is terrific. Many of you have met hin on one of the ships in Alaska. He is a gifted speaker, writer, and adventurer. And, he is a friend!
