> Kerry claims he received a 'long' voice mail from
> Reeve the same day ...

Do we have a source/date/time/quote for this communication?
It's been variously reported as a phone call, voicemail,
email and even a text message.

I've seen discussions about it on FR, but can't find
anything that elevates it out of the rumor class.

Here's an AP story: Kerry talks about phone call from Reeve. It says LA Times along the bottom, so I hope it's ok to post this link.

And ... I actually heard him say this in a TV clip yesterday, but I can't remember what station I was watching. I didn't think it was significant at the time.

"Kerry, who knew the "Superman" actor for about 15 years through family and dedication to the same causes, said Reeve left him a long voice mail on Saturday thanking him for campaigning on the possibilities of a cure for conditions like his"
