Funny how you stumble into things. I came across this article because I 
misread a note from a publicist and thought a Buffalo acquaintance had 
passed away (she was actually recalling that she presented the Buffalonian 
with an award named after *another* local legend - it was the latter who was 
deceased). So I Googled to find out what happened to Jamie Moses, was 
relieved that he was in fact *alive*, and found out he just gave a speech 
regarding supporting the arts in your community.

Not perfect by a long shot, but a topic dear to many of our hearts and a 
short but sweet read...
