her name was katie. katie was 84 years old. katie stood up at that podium that night, and she looked out across that audience, and she pointed her finger, and she said, if i can do it, anyone can do it. and all her buddies were in their 80's. but they were fired up, i promise you. but we faced a time in our country, whether you believe in global climate change or global warming, if you notice not only here in our country, but around the world, the different events that are happening today and what's going on, the floods in france just recently, the 20 people that lost their lives in arkansas just recently at a federal park, the people that lost their lives in haiti. people that lost their lives with the tsunami in indonesia and thyland and sri lanka. and we noticed it all the time, because, you know, we grew up doing this. but right here at home, we have the earthquake 1811, ran the mississippi rivers -- mississippi river backwards for at least races, rang bells in a boston church. i'll never forget when i was in arkansas, gove

. >> ballard: what's the range, katie? >> katie: 20 meters out. >> ballard: 20 meters out.e're closing in. >> logan: the crew is glued to the screens. pilots guide the remote- controlled vehicles towards the target some 1,500 feet below. what do you think you're going to find? >> ballard: i have my fingers crossed that it's an ancient shipwreck. >> logan: in the back of the room, archeologists stand ready to tell ballard what he may have found. >> ballard: all right, let's go find out what this puppy is. >> logan: this is the moment of discovery that still thrills bob ballard after half a century at sea. >> ballard: and the anticipation-- "what is it?" "don't know." and you come in and you come in, and you think, "well, it could be this, it could be..." and then, all of a sudden, the veil of... of darkness in the deep sea, like curtains, just open, and there it is. and you see it for the first time for 2,000 years or whatever. you can get used to that. >> logan: how many times have you done that? >> ballard: lots. >> logan: what's lots? >> ballard: 100 times or more. >> log

i'm met katie gibson last year in montana. because katie once had cancer, her insurance policy was suddenly revoked when she needed it the most even though she was paying her premiums. i called katie date after the house passed the reform bill last november, and i told her then that when it finally became law we would be able to protect americans like her from the kind of abuses she had to ensure. so anybody who favors repeal is welcomed to come talk to these people and tell them why we should go back to the status quo prior to signing this bill. go back o the way things were. you are going to need to explain why they had tens of millions of americans have their new rights taken away. i don't think they'll have that conversation. because in the end folks like amy and nathan and laura and to help.e who this law was made pmericans who work hard, who do the right thing, and just expect a fair shake in return. and every story i heard out there, every letter i read at night people were not asking for much more than that. nobody eve

turning was katy. -- her name was katie. she was 84 years old. she stood up at that podium at night and looked across the audience. she pointed her finger and said, if i can do it, anyone can do it. all her buddies were in their 80's, but they were fired up, i promise you. we face a time in our country -- what they believe in global climate change or global warming -- the different events that are happening today and what is going on . the floods in france recently. the 20 people who lost their lives at a federal park in arkansas recently. the people that lost their lives in haiti. the people that lost their lives with the tsunami in indonesia and thailand and sri lanka. we notice it all the time. we grew up doing this. right here at home, we have an earthquake zone. it ran the mississippi backwards for three days. it rang bells in the boston church. i will never forget, when i was director in arkansas, i said we need to pass some seismic bill into a decision -- in arkansas. we got the legislature to pass some seismic regulations for eastern arka

if you print that, katie graham, referring to katherine graham, the publisher of the "washington post," will get her tit caught in a big fat wringer. i wasn't accustomed to speaking to towns -- to attorneys general , and i kind of instinctively jumped back from the phone myself because of fear from my own parts aside from mrs. graham's because this guy certainly had the power to squeeze them. and then he went on to say, when this campaign is over we are going to do this story on you boys, too, and hung up the phone. of course in retrospect it's an amusing story, but i have to tell you we were 28 years old at the time and it was about the most chilling moment i think in all my years in the now 50 years in journalism than i ever experienced. this was a man of enormous power. and the threat was real. i believed the threat in terms of trying to be intimidating. so i called ben bradley, the editoo of the "washington post," to tell him what had happened in this exchange. and he said mitchell really said that? i said, yeah. he says you have it in your notes? yeah, it's all in the notes. and

katie, hi. caller: my father called me this morning to tell me that robert byrd passed away. i want to offer condolences to it in the family. i heard a few callers talk about what he was into when he was younger. a man has passed away. we should be in good taste and remember his legacy, and i think it is in bad taste for people to call in and throw him under the bus. the longest serving senator in the history of the senate, and he was a good man with good morals and it is ridiculous that people would call in and say things -- host: did you ever meet senator byrd? caller: no, but my grandfather was in the house of delegates for west virginia. he had met robert byrd a few times, and told me that he is a wonderful man. host: where is nitro? caller: 15 minutes outside of charleston. host: what you do there? caller: i worked at wal-mart. host: how his business? caller: business as usual, very busy. host: tracy is on the line. caller: that i to said that the naacp is a racist -- that guy who said that the naacp is racist -- the naacp does not make laws. i've sent condolences to the
