yeah, that was uncharacteristically LN-heavy for a Peak set. It was like something DC would force on AL.

Funny, I was halfway expecting this to be a 1974 set, being that today is the 40th anniversary of Nixon's resignation. But since we went there last week, I guess that'd be a bit much to expect. Close enough, I guess.
