Not really. He played banjo and wrote a book of instructions. He made friends and was loyal to them. When attacked verbally, he invoked his Constitutional right of free speech (as opposed to right to refuse self-incriminalization). He built 2 houses and a boat. He is a husband and father. For a long time he wrote a column in a magazine with a tiny circulation. He's lived a long time. He traveled with his family when he could. He has been consistent in his thinking, and admitted he made mistakes.
It's not what Pete has done for us, it's who he IS.
