■ Memo to: NR staff and readers From: WFB
In the past 36 years, several hundred young men and women have come to national review, done a stint here, left their fingerprints, and moved on as opportunity or necessity beckoned. I think of many, but focus for the moment on George Will, plucked from us by the Washington Post and Newsweek; Dan Oliver, selected by President Reagan to be Chairman of the Federal Trade Commission; John Leonard, swished off by Berkeley to be radicalized. And then there are those sometime directors of NR Inc. who are now judges or ambassadors or canonized saints.
