Just back from watching Mr. Reagan's funeral cortege. We were stationed in front of the Department of Labor and so were in perfect position to see everything, including the missing man formation beautifully executed right above us. I am pleased to say that everyone was extraordinarily well behaved and somber, despite the occasional eccentric clapping. (Apparently clapping is the only way we know how to give support.) I am even more pleased to say that when I went by the Capitol at 9:45, the viewing line stretched down the Hill and almost all the way around the Reflecting Pool and was actually longer than it sounds because around the Reflecting Pool it did not so much resemble a queue as it did a scrum.
