"Appreciative" is the word. I have so much respect for <I>anyone</I> who's figured out how to do this for a living. Add to that a person who's made genuine contributions to the field, tells great stories about the good old days, still does first-class work, and welcomes newbies like long-lost relatives, and, well ... then you've got someone like Paul. It's an honor just to meet them; really getting get to <I>talk</I> with them is as good as it gets. I hope I have opportunities to pass it on.Brian Fieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16347700145666751363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1568334561722760329.post-80582790910855505842008-10-16T16:27:00.000-07:002008-10-16T16:27:00.000-07:00Brian, you're truly blessed to have had the opport...Brian, you're truly blessed to have had the opportunity to meet so many of the greats!
