Just as an aside, the press totally ignored Denzell Washington. He was
visiting a military hospital. He was visiting one of the wings that the
families stay in. He asked how much it would cost to build one. One

He wrote a check on the spot.

All those other perverts and kooks in Hollywood fill the papers daily with
