Segal really is a nice guy. Check out his website. He's quite the philanthropist. He's another of those very spiritual characters. He's also a seventh degree Akkido Master. I always liked his movies, especially his older ones. I wish him the best, he's the real deal.
Thanks for sharing that. Clearly he is a very admirable person. I liked his old movies. But never knew much about him.
edit: I have a Firebird like his. A very strange instrument, the strangest I know of. The way the neck sticks out, how heavy the neck is, the laminated thru neck construction, the reverse banjo tuners. Very unique. I hardly ever play mine, but I expect that at some point I will play it a lot. It is neat to look at if nothing else.
