I like the comparison with Segal and Norris. I'm sure Bear is a great guy who happens to make his living now (part of it) in television land. As that, he's an actor and ain't nothing wrong with being an actor. I'm also sure he has a boss, program director or whatever who exerts some control over what Bear does (whether Bear likes it or not. How many of us like everything about our jobs?) I've learned some things from Bear and they make my outdoor experience better because of it. Learned some things from Les (and from this forum) which make my outdoor experience better.

Anyhoo, it's television. And watching television is like eating chicken: Eat the meat and throw away the bones.

My nickel's worth (due to current inflation rates)
