To quote a friend's .sig file

"Good job everybody."

Also:

• Is this the first time a sitting U.S. president gave a shout-out to nonreligious Americans in a major speech? (He used the word 'non-believers', which I also approve of.)

• I was glad that there didn't seem to be much chanting after his speech. The time for that stuff is done; now is the time to get to work.

I noticed the odd beat! To me it looked more like it wasn't written down in front of him, and he ad-libbed it in. I think I hope that's what happened!

I wonder if there will be any talk from the speech writers to tell which it was...
