Well said PHB. I wouldn't have replied so "diplomatically" to RMLs post. All I read was a lot of "I don't have what they have", and the most interesting was the blame assigned to "others that aren't artists" for making artists turn to drugs.
Basically, a lot of I, I, I and me, me, me. Hardly the words of one who puts others before himself. Hey, but I could be wrong...RML could be the most philanthropic human on the face of the planet, living in squalor and giving all he earns to the support of those less fortunate.
