Hi,

Honestly?

I have NONE for heroes. There are a lot of them that were valuable and nice along the way, but it is all a minor thing in the history of a life reaching 71. I find it weird, and even bizarre, that some folks are calling many of those folks "heroes" when they aren't!

Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

I'll beg to differ, M!  Jon Anderson's lyrics on "Tales" were hugely influential to me in college, where I transitioned from pursuing medicine to becoming an environmental scientist.  "Let them rape the forest..." over my dead body!  

I actually told this to Jon in person after the 35th Anniversary show in Chicago, and he gave me such a sweet smile...I'll always carry his smile with me.  Jon with my wife Ginny, 4 April, 2004.

They do every single show.

If people don't buy tickets to the show, they fail the test. Just like in school, you can only fail so many tests until you're "done"
