When I was a kid, I asked him how birds could sit on a telephone wire and not be electrocuted. He worked for PGE as a lineman, so I thought I was going to the right person. He told me that birds didn't actually sit on the wire, that they were hovering above. And I bought it. And I had to find out for myself, years later, that it wasn't true. How do you have that kind of patience??
He meant a lot to so many people and he won't be forgotten.
