He was no hero. He was a wonderfully competent pilot and everyone is enormously grateful for that, but he was not a hero. --- Hero? He should have checked with migratory patterns. The Canada Geese were my heroes. Unknown heroes whose corpses now lie in the cold depths of the Hudson. Cheers, JL **************A Good Credit Score is 700 or Above. See yours in just 2 easy steps!
