JHAP, I actually did get to shake hands with and talk with Ted, once (airport at Baltimore). He was very polite and a gentleman. Have not gotten to talk with Eric, but did see him play last year in Minneapolis/St. Paul.
That's great Dave! I have admired Ted ever since I bought & read his book
God, Guns & Rock & Roll. I bought the book for my sons & of course had to read it before giving it to them.
IMO it is highly recommended reading for youn adults.
The same as I feel of Bob Lusk, I would certainly like to travel in some of Ted's circles.
