Was anyone else at the radio drama recording? It was a lot of fun, and Ray got a standing ovation. The performance, he said, brought him to tears.

I won't be there, but will be jealous. Will you be able to post a brief summary of your reaction to it?

Thanks so much for the information on the play! I jumped right on it, and got tickets today for the last performance on Sunday Aug. 04. We were already heading to California (from New Mexico) for San Diego Comic-Con (which, by the way, Ray is appearing at on Saturday Aug. 3rd -- they will be listing that Saturday's schedule this coming Saturday on their site: www.comic-con.org. He may not be at the play on Saturday night, since he will be appearing at the Comic-Con that day.)

Thanks again for letting us all know about the play -- I might not have found out about it otherwise, or worse yet heard about it after the fact and realize that I could have seen it!
