No, that's not really what I'm saying. I'm saying that "celebrities" become celebrated in part because whatever it is they do is to some degree baffling to most people and yet wonderful. That which is baffling is more commonly offensive to people. Baffling but wonderful leads to a sense of mystique. If what Steve did could be replicated by just studying his track record, I don't think Apple would have brought him back. That's a rather unusual turn of events. Firing the Big Boss most often leads to deep wounds of a sort that won't close unless hell freezes over.

I will note I am not suggesting anyone run off and find a guru. I'm a big believer in "if you meet the buddha on the road, kill him". People have to learn to think for themselves. That's where the magic of life happens. That's what leads to the best decisions.

Thanks for your reply. Pleasant conversation is always a good thing.

Peace.
