Friend...I agree with you Z was such a class act...I knew him about the last ten years of his life and being much younger than him...he treated me with respect and was very kind...and you could read between the lines that he was teaching me as well...he and his generation ( what is left ) are going to be missed...I also agree with your know it all statement...I am never to proud to say I was wrong or did not know something...I am in my 50's but hung around all the old timers and learned to listen not speak out of turn...and absorb all you can...I miss the old days...
It's a treat to hear from another respectful, intelligent man. Unfortunately there are more two-bit phonies than real men, today, more than ever ;-( "No days like the old days"!
