Bill is 100% correct. 2 years after I met Linda face to face for the first time and had a brief conversation with her, and gave her a small gift, I walked by her, signing autographs against a line of 30 people at the York reunion, when she saw me, jumped to her feet, rounded the table and gave me a big hug, calling me by name. Obviously, I was flabbergasted beyond belief, embarrassed and made to feel very special at the same time.
She is a very special person who is part of a common thread we all have in this hobby. As far as I'm concerned, no one has the right to say anything against her.
And yes, she was, and still is "easy on the eyes"
