Heiko:
Some people's ideas of boring are boring.
After 20 years of friendship and encouragements
(with dinners and various "get-togethers" with
him), I can readily say that John was not boring.
He wasn't the kind of "slap-you-on-the-back"
"hardee-har-har" kinda fella. His conversations
were not filled with the verbal detritus that
often fills the "uncomfortable" silences during a
conversation. Few words that were almost always
well-chosen. We could all learn from his economy
of words. Especially me!
