I realized early on Wednesday that I wasn’t going to be able to perform my usual duties as #Bond_age_ host for the For Your Eyes Only Live Tweet. Since @krissy_myers wrote the #MFB on this fantastic, overlooked entry in the Bond series, I suggested she take the helm to shepherd the masses. Could she help them all see the light? Or would For Your Eyes Only be destined to be confused and interwoven with memories of lesser Bonds?
