And, illustrious present company no doubt excepted, it’s a fair bet that a lot of the agencies looking enviously on while this title taxis down the runway probably had this proposal in their query in-box awhile back and wouldn’t deign to even take a look at it. (Or acknowledge ever receiving the proposal) So, score another one on Jodi’s gameboard, what? Oh, well, on with the New Year anyway……….
