"I was in New York City visiting a friend many years ago and went out for coffee one morning. At 8 a.m. on the corner of Amsterdam and 72nd Street, I saw Bruce Pandolfini waiting for a bus. I had never met him before, but I certainly knew his face, and he knew mine. We both gave each other a solemn head nod as we went about our way. The next morning at exactly 8 a.m., I was back on Amsterdam and 72nd getting coffee, and lo and behold, I saw Bruce about to catch the bus again. This time it was clear someone had to say something. Bruce walked up to me, and said, 'You know, if we see each other tomorrow, it will be a draw by repetition."
