MM: "You've just come back
from an attempt on Blah blah balh. You saw my mom there for a

Ed: "It's
amazing to share space with somebody like her--it's almost like
I'm back at home with my own mom!"
Whoa Ed, keep the claws in

so I figured I would stop the transcription here. Ed later apologized
for his comments and wished my mom the best of luck on her bid
to follow Reinhold Messener's lead--summitting the world's highest
peaks without oxygen.
