Well, yeah, first of all, that was kind of a surprise to me. When I was flying in combat over Iraq during the first Gulf War, getting shot at on, you know, almost every time I went up on missions, I didn't expect that there was a 10-year-old kid you know, sitting in South Africa, who one day was going to become the richest guy in the world and was going to call me a traitor for doing my job.
