Below is a pretty harsh statement for a normally mellow guy.  What
mediocrity surrounded John? =20

As you said, I work around some very talented people some of whom have
large egos.  Fortunately most here are mature enough to keep their egos
in check, have developed acceptable social skills and work productively.
There are people who's talent to productivity ratio is unfavorable and
frequently they have to be let go. =20

I have spent time with many of the people in the home office, and on the
Journal staff and I have not thought of any of them as mediocre.

. I can imagine he may have been difficult to work with.



Unfortunately such is often the case with very talented and artistic
people.=20

Hi Dean,
                    Then we had better learn how to work with this kind
of talent, or we will lose.  As we have.  Let's face it, many of us work
with this kind of Artistic temperament on a regular basis. As
professionals we have learned to adapt.  Those that never learn, rarely
reach the top.

John may have been difficult and passionate, but he strove for
excellence, and attained it. Unfortunately he was surrounded by
mediocrity.=20


Regards Roger
