Cool ... he's my absolute favourite author too. I have all of his books ... even his poetry. I have one of his music CDs too.
I had the good fortune to meet Sid through a mutual friend once. I spent a thoroughly enjoyable afternoon with Sid, his wife Merna, and a couple other couples swilling beer and smoking Backwoods cigars. He's a very interesting guy, and humorous too in a cynical way. He's the kind of guy the enviro movement needs more of ... someone with strong ethics, but tempered with common sense.
