Hi Ron,

Didn't mean to imply that you didn't love and admire Pete because I know you do. Like me, you are one of his fans for sure. Guess I didn't make myself clear enough. I was really answering the idea that musicians don't just sprout out of the ground. Any great one is standing on the shoulders of someone else and Pete has broad shoulders.

As to the Palestinian thing, Pete is a peacemaker and always has been. He has always been compassionate about those that are oppressed, regardless of where they live.

"Con los pobres de la Tierra, quero yo me suerte echar".

That's Pete.
