And while I'm at it- one last comment in response to [xxx]s various claims that Lingo was a fake (in the various ways he puts it)
Hold on there-- you guys are calling somebody else a fake??? A liar???
Wow. Talk about the pot calling the kettle black.
People who live in glass houses-- well...Lingo was as genuine a human being as I'll ever know.
He didn't relish certificates on walls that say "THIS PERSON IS AN EXPERT!"- he LIVED life.
He observed people and how they behaved and reacted, and he shared this wisdom.
(Gee-- that sounds like human CHEMISTRY.)
And he did so in a manner that I and others (including the quoted Goodman here) found enormously useful and inspiring.
You don't get a degree in being HUMAN at any university.
Ask the 12,000 members of my newsletter group, the 70,000 people that visit my site every month if they think the philosophy and observations I continue to write about and share is useless.
I see in Yoder/[xxx] and DenebDashiki/Roso two unhappy disgruntled humans that find it somehow self-engrandizing to criticize and minimalize the life's work of Lingo pathetic and self-serving.
It might just be that if you guys don't like me or Lingo or a combination of either-- that the problem ain't us.
Take a good hard look in the mirror.
