Sally Jewell was today revealed by the
New York Times as a mountain climber/hiker - one of our tribe.
She has summited Rainier, Kilimanjaro, Mont Blanc and the Vinson Massif.
A quick quote:
..."
no rational business executive would cut an operating budget across the board, as the federal budget process known as the sequester requires."
And a story:
When she went to open an account at a local bank branch near her new home in the Dupont Circle area of Washington, the clerk asked where she was employed.
"The Interior Department,” Ms. Jewell replied.
"What's your position there?” the clerk asked.
"Secretary,” Ms. Jewell answered. The clerk just nodded.
