Q : No. Well, that’s what I mean.
JS : Yeah. But at the same time you don’t get the radio program if the radio set has static in it.
Q : Oh no, no. But the poet is an agent then, or…
JS : Well yeah, like a mother is, yeah. But you know, it’s pretty hard for a father to have a baby. I mean, good agents are kind of hard to find these days. I don’t really see that it’s anything less to be proud of to be a good agent.
