We've done walking tours before, ... Citizens Bank has sponsored them to take them to a new level.

The preparedness on all levels has increased 10-fold from the local citizens up to the government level. People are a taking it a lot more serious. I think everybody has seen how devastating these storms can be, both to their property and to their potential loss of life. I think the awareness level, seriousness and priority it has given has made it a lot easier for the preparation to take place.

I was invited by [a contact in the] banking industry to make [the] transition to Citizens Bank.

Citizens has very high-quality customer service. The tellers are always cordial and great to deal with, and an improvement over Mellon.

I am alarmed when it happens that I have walked a mile into the woods bodily, without getting there in spirit.

If I do a series or tapes for the States and it's sponsored by somebody for the public broadcast system, I am committed to going on tour around various stations.
