To add to my earlier post, people I have seen but not talked to.

Ted Nugent. Stood next to him at a Texas gun show looking at some Winchesters. I handed him one that I was looking at.

Karl Rove. Sat two rows back from him flying from DC to Dallas.

David Gregory. Flew in a plane with him from DC to Chicago. This was during his Meet the Press days. Had zero interest in meeting him.

Nick Bilton, author, contacted me and interviewed me on phone on a thesis I wrote while in grad school. He was polite.

Mark Shields. Walked past him during a normal day on the Mall in DC.

David Webb. Coming out from watching Trump’s inauguration in DC, I walked next to him for awhile.
