[QUOTE="ALLEY, post: 5250687, member: 5046"] When I was a kid on a Spring break, in the late 1980’s, my family stayed in the small town of Ridgway, CO and attended a gathering in the town park in which Dennis Weaver, who was a local resident of the town, recreated a speech he gave in one of the [B][I]McCloud [/I][/B]TV movies, on a small stage. I vaguely recall it being a speech that was directed at “a senator” and had something to do with the environment. Some of it was difficult to hear since he delivered it without a microphone. After the speech, he mingled in the park, signed autographs, etc. He seemed to be a very soft-spoken, down-to-earth person. I had no idea who Dennis Weaver was and only loosely paid attention to him, that day. It was about 5 years later that I finally saw [B][I]Duel [/I][/B](over one of the summers when it played in TBS over and over) and realized who I had seen on that small stage. [/QUOTE]
