I met Chuck D at a Jamaican restaurant in DC years ago. A bunch of fellas were coming downstairs and one dude pulled out an Amex Corporate Card that looked like one I just got in the mail, and since I was next to the cash register when the waitress laid the card down after a swipe, I noticed the name actually had "Chuck D" on it. I struck up a conversation with D, a very nice and intelligent guy. I wish that I had the Sly Stone web site back then; I know he would've been interested in it. I found KW-related quotes from Chuck :-) : "Americans are basically taught to be robots." And if they want to be ready for the next century, he said, then they must begin to think independently. "Although we're heading into an information age, we're also entering a misinformation zone," he said "There are going to be a lot of people picking electronic cotton and digging digital ditches." amir
