Magic Johnson, Michael Jordan and Larry Bird, the greatest in basketball, led the U.S. in the 1992 Olympics. In the little known world of telecom policy, the Obama appointees equally stand out. Of the top ten best prospects, they persuaded 12 to join the administration. Blair Levin, consummate insider as FCC chief of staff, added 8 years learning the inside of the industry as a top financial analyst. I've watched Susan Crawford stand out at a seminar loaded with MIT professors, Internet pioneers, and the like because of her incredibly quick mind. I didn't know Larry Strickling, but when I asked people who had worked with him the response was closer to love than ordinary admiration. Jonathan Adelstein has been a hero for years.
