I met Kathy at a particularly fascinating event a Chicago a couple of
years ago.
Kathy announced in public that she was ready to offer help to _anyone_
who called her. Anyone. She said only that she might "send you back to
do your homework" first, but she was ready to help anyone.
I thought this was a remarkable position, and resolved to be more
available as a helper and mentor.
