re: #229 Killgore Trout

It’s an audience of college kids, excited to see the president and attend a televised speech. They can’t help it.

I think also it’s also about a release… that city has been suffering for 5 days now, in shock over this. They needed a time to scream and yell. It’s part joy over the president and part release of emotions.

I found myself actually laughing with friends after my father’s memorial service which I thought, myself was inappropriate, but I was happy to have closure.

Same for Obama too, I think.
