Having the LBJ School of Public Policy across the street from the law school has made seeing great speakers incredibly convenient.  The two schools joined to host Justice Stephen Breyer of the United States Supreme Court in a number of events today.  I was only able to go to his interview with Dean Sager, during which they mostly discussed his new book.  I was able to meet Justice Breyer prior to the event, but didn't get much more than a grunt of acknowledgement.  I was a bit miffed, to say the least.  Regardless, his discussion with Dean Sager and the stories he told were highly entertaining.  As to be expected with a Supreme Court justice, he has a way with words and has an incredible knack for eloquence.
