Cool that you put Rick first, David! Always pleasant to see the occasional good word about him here. If you read/listen to Rick's interviews, you can't help but be impressed by his class, his wit, and his ability to be articulate without being pompous.

IIRC, Rick graduated from college in Philly before heading west to make a name for himself with his guitar. It was asked earlier, but I'm curious as to how many of the band's past and present members are college grads?

"(ability to learn, understand, & solve abstract problems)"
I'm beginning to suspect David was in the math club with Rick in college...

P. S. A rude question? Good heavens, we've discussed Stevie's boobs, S&L's sex lives (together and/or separately), Chris's hot legs, Mick's financial escapades -- why on earth would discussing intelligence be off-limits?
