I think that Uncle Wole is such a legend that we should organize a live web chat of him that we can ask himi question and then answers so that his great wisdom can be imparted otherwise what profit us if it is lost when he set of at dawn or after his even newer works later on in that day?

WB,
was with him Oct 14 for a brief meeting he wanted before the Steve Rhodes concert at Muson on that day.

One of my life's missions is to tag alongside him for a while.

How've you been?
