Your Decision

My good friend, Chuck, once worked for a charismatic leader.  That leader was Howard Hanson, Director of South Dakota Services to the Blind and Visually Handicapped.  When Howard walked into the room, people would look up from what they were doing.  When Howard spoke, the crowd got quieter.  When you talked to Howard, he would look at you and absorb everything you were saying.  You felt like you were alone in the world with him; which was amazing because Howard was stone, cold blind.
