“The Delta plantation owners cut a deal with the draft board, and we [African-Americans] got only partial basic training, served a few months, and went back to work on the plantation,”

I didn't know that, and I usually keep up with that sort of thing. Plowmen dig my earth, I guess.

This guy is unreal. He is a genius and he is so modest. Most important he is always eager to learn. He said somthing simular about classical music. A lot of people should pattern oneself on him.(This includes me!)
