OK, Gary, so you say "McCartney isn't doing anything different than 
academicians"????  Please tell me the name of one (just one, that's all I 
ask) CU-Boulder professor/"academician" who has more name recognition 
than Big Bill (tm) and who uses that recognition (overtly or covertly) to 
further his or her own separate-from-the-university cause.  Just one.  
Seems to me that he *is* doing something different.  Thanks in advance.

John
