I spent some time with Jim at the CRW little shop that used to be a school bus repair garage...Jim liked to talk about "things" once or twice a week...I took lots of notes. Here's some things I remember about him: (quotes are his words)
- he loved cats and use to feed them out back
-he loved tennis and played whenever he could
-he loved the symphony esp.Horowitz ( "his feelings of joy and sorrow were also shared by me")
-"You will learn about woodworking here and along the way you will learn things about yourself"
-he loved fish and ate mackerel and cod and other fish every day for lunch
-"we don't have to be scientific here and go out and buy a computerized square that's capable of measuring infinitesimal of an inch...no,we're talking about feeling and quality...things that can't be measured"
But the thing I remember most was his conversations about those "things" when he walked around the shop and everybody was humming away on their projects.He was genuinely interested in you as a person....
