I interviewed survivors I went to Poland saw the cities and spent time with the people and spoke to the Jews who had come back to Poland after the war and talked about why they had come back.
We went online to surrogacy agencies. We interviewed lots of people - and I have to say with all due respect some of them were freaks. I was very leery of the process the whole way through.
I don't have to run the Peace Corps. I could live without seeing my picture in the newspapers and without being interviewed.
Early in life I had to choose between honest arrogance and hypocritical humility. I chose the former and have seen no reason to change.
