Roger is from Urbana Il my hometown.

A couple of WC bridge players from there who taught me bridge.

He wrote for the Daily Illini my college paper which I grew up as a paper boy and reader.

I watch his show and read his reviews from Chicago where I worked.

Nice piece -- thanks.

The infliction of cruelty with a good conscience is a delight to moralists — that is why they invented hell. — Bertrand Russell
