He was very charismatic,and wonderful to converse with but I didn't catch his name. I and saw him the other day at Michael Ignatieff's rally. As he walked by I said to him, I remember you. He than turned to me and said, "Your Louisette Lanteigne". I didn't think after 7 years he'd remember me by name but none the less I introduced him to my daughter Samantha and then we spoke on issues regarding quarry pits, flawed Environmental Impact Studies and how issues in Waterloo Region reflect the same flaws from here to the Tar Sands. In no time he was writing down my email so we could discuss the matter further. <br><br>As I was writing, Michael Ignatieff showed up so I asked
Mr. Ignatieff to sign my copy of his book True Patriot Love which he did. The guy from the banquet then states to Mr. Ignatieff, "Michael, you've got to here what Louisette has to say" At which time I whispered a comment basically stating that folks are making millions off destruction for profit scenerios using poor hydrogeological information resulting in massive infrastructure projects. I gave a quick example or two in passing and Michael Ignatieff told me to contact him directly with the details.<br><br>Once Michael was finished I finally turned around to the other fella and I asked him, "What is your name?" He told me his name is John Grisham. I shook his hand and thanked him. <br><br>During this time my daughter was holding a vote for Telegdi sign as Michael Ignatieff passed by, thinking it would look good for the cameras and she only caught a glimps of the other fella just a bit before we left. On the way to the car she said, "Mom,
that man is so familiar. I've seen him somewhere." <br><br>When
I got in the car, my daughter turned to me and asked me, "What was his
name again? I said John Grisham. She turned absolutely white then turned
to me and said MOM! THAT MAN IS JOHN GRISHAM...THE AUTHOR!!! He's MY
FAVORITE AUTHOR IN THE WHOLE WORLD!!! Oh My GOD THAT MAN WAS JOHN
GRISHAM!!!! <br><br>John Grisham is the author of: The Client, the
Pelican Brief, the firm. He writes books focused on industry corruption
and political scandal. My daughter knows his face from the cover of all his books but she didn't recognize him for the glasses he was wearing when we met. We looked online and saw that it is him. My poor daughter is so tormented to be in the midst of her favorite writer without realizing it but she admits it's kind of cool for the guy to know her mom by name. <br><br>Someone posted a You Tube video that captured our meeting. You can see Mr. Ignatieff, John Grisham and I right after the baby kissing scene. <br><a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7HPwV_h1Tqg">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7HPwV_h1Tqg</a><br><br>Today
Michael Ignatieff released his election platform. He states in it: <span style="font-weight: bold;">We cannot take our water resources for
granted, particularly as pollution, overuse, climate change</span> <span style="font-weight: bold;">and
increasing populations in some regions are putting water quality and
availability at potential risk.</span><br><br>I think it's safe to say the Waterloo Moraine is on the radar now. <br><br>Lulu :0)<br></div>
