Thanks to Bruce for dredging up some information I thought long
buried in the archives!
Yes, I have spoken to the man, it is true. I lived in New Hampshire
for a few years and had occasion to pass through Cornish many times.
He has a sturdy voice, full of color and authority, smooth and rich.
(I know this sounds like a parody of a wine description.) I don't
know of anyone to whom I can point and say, "He sounds like that."
There's the steeliness I would expect from a graduate of military
school, but the warmth of someone who sounds as if he has spent his
life speaking quietly indoors to people who listen carefully to every
word he has to offer. I would never have recorded him (I am not a
stalker!) but I can say that his voice sticks.
