Woke to a clear, warm summer morning. Watched the end of the ceremony while eating breakfast, and the Bushes leaving by helicopter while cutting my lunch. Crowd shots on TV showing everyone wrapped up to keep out the cold, but the looks and emotion on all the faces! I'm in shorts and work shirt in the warmth.

Thoughts on januarythe20th.com
- "[January the 20th] is a scheme to replicate the great British documentation/ethnography project of the '30s, mass observation. I don't know who's launched this remake but it's a great opportunity to build up a picture of the actual America--not Bill Kristol's, not Jon Meacham's, not MSM's. Teachers, put your students to work! Journos, tell everybody!" -Todd Gitlin, Professor of Journalism and Sociology, Columbia University
