Why is Al Gore getting camera shy?

Al Gore is scheduled to speak at Duke University on Thursday.  The speech is expected to last about 45 minutes and he's expected to take questions from students.  And the media is invited . . .  but only to the first 5 minutes of the speech.  (Link to story here.)

Why?  

I suspect that he has figured out how much easier it is to deny one's outlandish exaggerations and fabrications when later proven wrong if there is no proof that such statements were made.

Gore seems to have learned a valuable lesson - in addition to picking up an Oscar and a Nobel Prize - from An Inconvenient Truth.  He's gotten too shy shy.

Too shy shy, hush hush, eye to eye.

Thank you. The Internet needs more obscure musical references, especially Kajagoogoo.

You're welcome. I'll keep doing my part.
