 Windstar Chat Transcript - December, 2001. -
seems John attracted a lot of 'conservative' fans...,though it seems to me esp./ at the time, the 70's, he was very 'liberal'The environment etc..What do you think he would have thought of the diversity now amoung Johns fans on the internet, the JD neg, various sites and pages and ideas that is related to him.
The idea of Johns pic's being put in a book is a good idea, Zak and I spoke of it once when a friend of John's/ours Arthur Jackson brought it up.
I know this was one of John's lesser and probably personal causes but I do so hope his family and friends will remember this and hopefully when a cure is found I will set off fireworks for her, for my beloved father who passed away only 4 months before her and especially for John.
