>>Anyways, the whole point of this letter is really to say, "Woz, even though

>Woz would be it :)

I have had the pleasure of hearing Woz speak at an Applesiders 
(Cincinnati Mac User Group) convention a few years back. Even 
surrounded by hundreds of folks who hold him in near-god status, he 
was all that has been described here and more.  He had a great and 
gentle way of sliding himself off of our pedestals and become "one of 
the folk"... the sort of fellow that one would want to hang around 
with as a friend rather than an idol.

Oh, and he is a GREAT story teller! He may not have the "PT Barnum" 
of Steve Jobs, but he kept us all laughing, and we all wished that 
the convention had allotted more time for him to speak.
