Hsu, Lang, Morsch, and Ed all have incredible history behind them. Hyatt
doesn't. I don't really consider Amir to be a legend (yet) and his name is
easily replaced with a number of others. Kittinger, Stanback, Bruce Moreland,
Christophe, Stefan, Uniakle, de Koening; sorry if I left anybody out. But I
consider any of these guys more impressive than Hyatt.
