The point was that I saw very few alumni from comparatively recent classes in attendance, so there was a noticeable difference in the audiences. I didn’t paraphrase some of the other Qs from the alumni audience, but some of them make it unambiguously clear that the questioners were not bloggers or blog readers. Eric.

Who do you think attends 35th-year reunions? Perhaps the most traditional and conservative of the classes? I graduated from HLS in 1971, so that was my 35th reunion gathering you were viewing. How many of the class members attended? One in 10, maybe.

As you know, I have a blawg (the TTABlog). My readers include not only “elderly men” and even HLS graduates, but readers of all ages.

Frankly, I think I would rather spend my time with my HLS reunion group than join the circle of navel-gazing jerks who gathered with you to blather on about their own brilliance and self importance.

Regards,

John L. Welch

HLS Class of 1971
