I'll have to think about this, since so many to whom I owe immense gratitude are no longer with us - though in my case the list might seem odd. Also, in this particular case, I do not tend to feel terrifically grateful for people doing their job (as all the people in Bruce's list obviously have).At least as I get older I tend to be most grateful to those persons I have encountered who knew how to be, and be correctly, not just how to think correctly (those in Bruce's list I suspect know that also - I've met Tom Shippey and feel that's true of him).
