Odum, from Green Mountain Daily, interviewed Dean at last weekend's Democracy Fest...

odum: You gonna be in Burlington on July 15th? You oughta come to the blogger's barbeque on North Beach.

Dean: I'd absolutely want to do it - (double takes to consider what he's just heard) - the bloggers are having - this is Burlington - Vermont bloggers - are having a barbeque?

odum: Yes, Neil Jensen, Philip Baruth and I - Philip has Vermont Daily Briefing -

Dean: Sure.

odum: And last year was the first one, and we turned out a crowd ofpeople - most of our major candidates. An off-election year won't bequite as star-studded, but you could certainly change that if you werein town.

Dean: What time is it?

odum: 1 to 5.

Dean: (to aide) 1 to 5, North Beach - write that down. I haveabsolutely no idea what I'm going to do right now, but, you know -that'd be a fun thing for me to do.
