The Balladeer gives a rueful little chuckle. "Yeah. I don't know how this is the first they've heard of it. With everyone carrying those camera phones, too!"

It almost makes him wish he'd ended up in charge of stories about other things in American history. Can you imagine the song this would make? Granted it's all probably still a little terrifying for the uninitiated, but there's so many opportunities to learn about different worlds! The spirit of exploration - he could've done a great one about the moon landing too, that would've been fun.

"I still haven't been going around telling people I came here that way, but I think some of them might suspect," he admits a little sheepishly. It's his own fault; he made himself conspicuously strange. He probably could've coasted under the radar if he'd stuck to 'Bradley'. "Mostly the other regulars from the park. I haven't played out there much lately - ROMAC knew I did that - but I wanted to check in on them with everything that's been happening." They were his friends, and frankly he worried that some of them might have gotten stuck out in that jungle.
