Respose to the following statement:

=======================================
G.L.: My old manager Albert Grossman used to say “it won’t make the coffee taste any different in the morning.” (laughing) Whether there’s a book or not…...it doesn’t matter.
=======================================

Sorry G.L..... I don't agree... It DOES matter!

There are too few heros nowadays.... and the world still needs heros.

We need to keep the ones we still have, and we need to hear their stories. (The ones that don't turn out to have feet of clay.)

100+ years from now, it will still matter.
Tell the story and keep it straight. Or someone else will tell it crooked.

My recommendation for a title: "Modest Hero".
