One afternoon quite a few years ago Alex Trebek did something newsworthy for a Canadian audience and  I tried  to get a hold of him.  Or I "reached out" as they interminably say these days!. Not only was he reachable, he gave my rinky-dink little radio show the best interview it ever had. He said quotable things that gave us some great clips and he made me look great. So when I saw what that guy wrote, I got a little choked up myself.
