    You are a sucker for wit as humor and few people really are. There isn't a lot of it out here now. I don't know if you have access to Netflix but there are to documentaries which will be worth your time. One is called Gore Vidal: the United States of Amnesia and the second The Best of Enemies Buckley vs Vidal. I encourage you to partake.

    Yeah, I watched all those shows, and Oscar Levant used to appear on the Jack Paar show, a lot. I remember Steve Allen well. Johnny Carson didn't take over the show until I think '62. He used to host a game show called "Who Do You Trust". Probably some clips of it on YouTube. Gore Vidal is wonderful, especially when he debated William F Buckley. Cheers.

    wow. Someone else on a forum who knows both Oscar Levant and Gore Vidal. Its almost as though you watched Steve Allen and Jack Paar each night interview such types. I think we will get along very well.
