to go back to public affairs i i don't thinkirs, the policymaking i described and public affairs are mutually exclusive. i think they go hand-in-hand when public affairs, talking about the history of your office, unit, agency in a meaningful way, not as a cabinet of curiosity or in a banal sort of way. but truly fleshing out the richness of an agency's history, the fact that it was not only leadership that led an agency but hundreds of people over generations to shape a particular branch. by framing history and a really -- history in a really rich and thoughtful way in a public affairs context, that also leads to history becoming more foreground as opposed to background. that is my experience, but i understand the potential pitfalls there. >> when i spoke earlier i did not mean to say the importance of history was easy. >> you make it look easy.
