“There’s a moment, just after he’s been introduced, when Minter is just standing there. That’s when I always get excited. He’s a showman, a storyteller, a prognosticator. He’s also a mine of interesting, provocative, insightful information. Best of all, he’s a kind, charming and thoughtful guy with a big heart.”
