Has Brian Rea left NYC yet?  Whenever I think I've worked on the last assignment with Brian, he calls with a new one.  This one is for Today's Op-Ed titled "The Risk of Too Much Oversight" about how all the numerous Congressional committees restrict and get in the way of the Homeland Security department's ability to defend the country.  I had a number of ideas and Brian ended up going with this one which I liked.  The article is here.
Below are some other recent jobs for the Op Ed page on a variety of subjects.  I've worked with Kim Bost, Brian's assistant on some of those.  It's been a pleasure working with Brian over the years.  He's always been patient, smart, and cool under a lot of pressure.
