    That is too bad, he was one of the most interesting and knowledgeable people I've run into on the web.

    Jack was a treasure. He did stuff long before the rest of us thought it would be interesting to do. Such a smart man. And the sycophants he surrounded himself with, turned out to be pretty smart, but boy he had them whipped into shape. I once had a airplane instructor that was that much of a hardass, and I gotta say I hated that class, but in the end I respected him more than any of my other instructors.

    Sure Jack liked Trump, it was a bit like Trump, you would not call him funny in any way. But you realize that you don't have to have the same politics to appreciate the intellect. Perhaps I liked him because of how much *time* I spent with him. If he talked faster I would have been able to moved on to another video :D
