One of the highlights of the Albany Tea Party was a speech by small business owner, Mike Egelston. I haven’t been able to confirm yet if this is the Mike Egelston that I grew up with (I was too far away to see for myself), but his speech resonated with all. He was interrupted several times with applause, and more than once with standing ovations.

If anybody out there knows who he is, please let me know.
