    One of my high school friends got to spend a little quality time with (not in) Eleanor back in the day. He graduated from Brown in '84, and got to know her from working on her dad's campaign. She called him early one afternoon out of the blue and invited him to a Springsteen concert that night. He flew down and joined her and some staff for the show, and had dinner after with Max Weinberg.
    Same day. Same age. Sad coincidence.
