I'm new to Durant but recall reading somewhere that Will Rogers was a friend of Will Durant. I would have paid good money to sit at the feet of those masters and just listen. Those were two very broad thinkers indeed and it shows in their humor. Their words seem to smile and I have to think that the more they learned the more they chuckled with Buddha. Thanks for your wonderful site and I look forward to the Greatest Minds and Ideas of All Time.....Larry Sturdevant
