>>Is there a lesson to be learned here? >> >>Bill Royall Yes, there is a lesson to be learned. That people with tact, politeness and the ability to tell people what they want to hear can continue to be well reknowned, liked and admired regardless of the validity of their beliefs, or the beliefs they publicly hold. George is a real easy guy to dislike. He has a short temper, can be really rude, and often flies off the handle like a teenager in a 'roid rage. But once you accept who he is and start listening, you'll realize that not only is he almost always right, but is a source of information that you would be very hard pressed to find elsewhere. And information you especially don't hear from any of the training agencies. If George had the personality of a politician like Clinton, or even a guy like Hal Wats, there would probably be statues of him all over central Florida.
