[Avid-L2] Re: Dede Allen interview on Fresh Air tomorrow

It's not uncommon, even these days. I know at least 2 editors who can
hardly operate the Avid and work with a first assistant who "drives"
it for them. Ok, they're not "young blood", but they're still working.
Their experience of storytelling is more important than their ability
to use an Avid.

PS: enjoyed the Dede interview. Is it a cut down version of a longer
one?
