OK, that explains why I never heard about them -- I'm completely uninterested

by playing games....

To some people, a hero is someone whom they wish they could emulate
(but likely could not). :)

The majority of the hockey audience are probably not interested in
becoming hockey players thenselves though - they're very content to be
in the audience....

But I get your point - who is a "hero" is a very subjective judgement.
To neo-nazis, Hitler was a hero for instance....

Btw, tonights lunar eclipse just ended. I was clouded out all the time except
the last 5 minutes of umbral eclipse. Sorry, but I was unable to estimate a
Danjon L number for this eclipse... :-)
