A partner at my old firm was interviewed on 60 Minutes by Mike Wallace, and spoke of the experience at a firm meeting shortly thereafter. His assessment was the same. I don't remember his exact words (and I'm sure he didn't say it like this), but the impression I came away with was, "Mike Wallace is a total prick".
In other news, there's a blown-up taxi outside the MetLife building right now. Between that and the column in the NYT today about how AlQuaida (that's not the right spelling, is it?) has the capacity -- or at the very least is looking to get the capacity -- to detonate a nuclear device that would, if set off in Times Square, annihilate all of midtown (leaving my children orphans, as both their parents work in midtown).
Ah, to live in TCOTU...
