I agree, Simon was the cutting edge in his time, doing things that others had not
thought of, Ideas that you now see as passe, but the person that came up with
those ideas is still here with us and it is worth listening to what he has to say,
because if you are humble enough to both read and understand what he has to say
you may learn something, whether or not you agree with his opinion, it just may
give you the alternative viewpoint to galvanise your own convictions.
