Right now they are following the trail to inauguration (Lincoln in Philadelphia at the moment on his way to DC). Terrific re-enactment, coming up: Sam Waterston reads Lincoln's First Inaugural Address at the Capitol. Took place live this morning.

Quite the anniversary. Please check out CSPAN 3 right now if you get it. Great stuff.

P.S. Harold Holzer, chair of the Lincoln Bicentennial Commission, to speak shortly. He's fantastic. Enjoy.

1. Does Sam Waterston have The Beard? Did he train for months living in a log cabin,
...as Daniel Day-Lewis doubtless will do?
