But despite all your best efforts, you're right sometimes the expert ends up being a dolt. I always try to line up at least two good experts if it's key to my story. Even if it's the perfect expert sometimes the person falls through at the last minute. Not good. I definitely agree that prepping an interviewee is important (I usually send questions beforehand).
