[Dixielandjazz] Poor Ken Burns

[Mike]

Yeah, I kind of gathered that there was some jealousy. I look at 
it this way, there was plenty of time and opportunity to put a 
project like Ken's together. Nothing but space and opportunity 
and one moved on it. But Ken does and he gets major criticism. 
Why are the successful(and the forward thinking individuals) 
always criticized by the "non-doers"?
