Concerning my personal statement on page 106,

It’s important to know that my realization of the trauma caused by Cretin and the error of my own complicit role, is largely because of my partnership with Ann Scher, sister of our classmate David Scher. She and I have been together since 1974 and it’s her sensibilities and arguments that have helped me to understand that there are better ways than domination, to get things done.
Joining the Scher family gave me the opportunity to become post-Cretin friends with David Scher, Tim Kane and Tim Ryan. Seeing things through Ann’s perspective and how Cretin affected my classmates woke me up ... and the love of my life continues to put up with me and help me to recognize, control and correct my arrogance!
