I agree. As much temptation as there would be to bug him for an autograph or try to make conversation or ask him when the
new album is coming out, I'd just say "hello" too. The guy gets thousands of letters every week, and he can't go anywhere
without being mobbed by fans, all telling him that they "understand" or they "feel his pain" or whatever, and he's got to get sick
of it. I would just do my part and leave the poor guy alone. As for the issue of "worshipping" Trent, I think it is a term that's a
bit overused, and also misused. I do not "worship" Trent, but I have such a high amount of respect for him that it transcends
simply admiring him or looking up to him, or even idolizing him. It's such a deep respect that, in sense, it could almost be called
"worshipping." And I think that's what a lot of people mean when they say they worship Trent. Of course, there are a lot of
stupid people that say it to be cool or whatever, but they're usually pretty easy to identify. "NiN Is KeEwWlL, TrEnT Is My
GoD, I WoRsHiP HiM AnD MaNsOn 666" You know, that kind of thing. And it's people like that who give the "worship"
term a bad rap.
