Channel 3 wanted to hear from yours truly about the importance of Sigmund Freud. I kind of had the feeling that the newscaster wasn't too sure that who he was. I told her that we weren't sure if we, as an institution, wanted to "celebrate" or simply "commemorate" Freud's lectures. That was already a bit too much information, I suspect!
On another front, I need some coaching for talking to the press! When the ran the clip, I heard that I said "uhmm" about ten times in one sentence. In the following story, about a gymnastics competition coming to Worcester, they interviewed a 15-year-old who didn't say "uhmm" once.
That's really cool! I wonder if the clip is on youtube. It'd be fun to see.
