I traveled with Howard for a few years, and i think i knew him as well as any
of the other members. Howard always gave more than he expected in return.
I admired the man, and shared much with him. I am sure that before he passed
away he forgave the magician for the prank.
It would do all of us well to drop the subject, and avoid the site becoming a forum for useless gossip IMHO !
just saying
