There's just no substitute for experience, and when someone like Howie opens up I'm all ears. Thanks, Steve, for getting these gentlemen on the air for guys like me to hear. It keeps me connected in a way that I can't get anywhere else.

O/D,
Glad you caught Howie and enjoyed the visit. It's a delight to bring him and those like him to an appreciative audience...
