No point i talking to John - I think he's said what he wanted to say
You many not see any nastiness - I do Im afraid
Ewan's stage name (which it wasn't, of course) has been talked to death at the expense of talking about the things about him that matter - that's more than nasty - it's obstructive to the point of being destructive
I think you'll find that most people who knew him didn't find him "controversial" unless you consider honestly speaking your mind controversial - he certainly did that I'm pleased to say
Let's leave it there and remain friends eh ?
