Michael Richards is "a new man"

Larry David, creator of Seinfeld and Curb Your Enthusiasm, says that his former Seinfeld star Michael Richards is "a new man" after his racial-slur incident two years ago. Richards recently taped a guest appearance on Curb Your Enthusiasm playing himself (as part of a reunion of all four Seinfeld regulars), and David was impressed by how much nicer he has become since ruining his career: "He used to be very angry and bitter. He’s completely different now. You can see it, and he can feel it. I’m very happy for him." Whatever happened to David’s rule of "no hugging, no learning?"
