Do you think this will be available somewhere online? I don't have tv but would love to watch this.
Diane Sawyer has such a way with her interview subjects.

Just saw that too. My husband's high school physics teacher transiting about 10 years ago to female. Stayed married to his female wife. People meeting the female version without knowing that he/she was male are shocked that she had achieved her educational and life experience background in the sciences so many years ago.
Maybe a reminder that there have been many brave people in the queue.

Darn, I really wanted to see that interview. I do accounting for a client who transitioned from male to female quite a few years ago.
I actually met Bruce Jenner in a Las Vegas restaurant when I was 21 years old, shortly after he had won the gold medal. I got his autograph! I am almost 5'9" and he towered over me. He will be a rather tall woman! :yes:

It was so good and so powerful, I woke up this morning thinking about it.
I was a 13 year old teen when Bruce won the Gold Medal and I was infatuated with him. He was gorgeous and athletic and perfect. I admired him then and admire him now.
Two of my favorite tweets from last night -

I was proud of Bruce Jenner in Montreal and I'm proud of him tonight. Some have to fight more than the rest of us for their happiness.
Debra Messing @DebraMessing · 10h 10 hours ago
Bruce Jenner-An American Hero yet again.
You changed EVERYTHING tonight. Thank you. #brave #authentic #beautiful
That really warms the heart. Things are changing for the good, one day at a time and our youth are the ones to do it.
TY infinite for posting this. :hug:

We're not sure... We've been told anywhere from an hour to twelve hours depending on how cooperative the upgrading process is. Once it's completed, we have to make sure that all settings, users, threads, formatting were kept intact...
Wish us luck!!!!
