    <p>An internet broadcaster is looking for others to interview. If
      you are interested, send a note to Steve Durel <a
        class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="mailto:sdurel@alumni.nd.edu"><sdurel@alumni.nd.edu></a>.
      <br>
    </p>
    <p>I'm not familiar with Mr. Durel beyond the fact that he taped an
      interview with me at LPHQ one day.</p>
    <p>He asked tough philosophical questions about the Non-Aggression
      Principle as well as "was Gary Johnson the best candidate for
      President?" <br>
    </p>
    <p>I like doing some of these interviews that aren't seen by many
      people just for the practice if nothing else, particularly since I
      haven't done many interviews over the past few years. <br>
    </p>
    <p>Of course, the down side is when I'm asked about the NAP or "Was
      Gary Johnson the best Libertarian candidate?" there's lots of
      potential for putting my foot in my mouth and not a whole lot of
      upside potential:</p>

      interview. <br>

          <pre>I found a little foam mic cover (you're not the first to lose one here). 
Probably yours. If you check your equipment and see your missing it, 
just give me your mailing address and I'll send it Monday.
