Abstract
Despite the similarity of the above title to a movie of recent vintage, I do not want to give the impression that this is material for a Hollywood script about two guys who attempt to drive off a cliff. I undertake this account of my work with Belver Griffith, not so much as history, but more as personal therapy, reflection on a creative and sometimes difficult collaboration, and an opportunity to contrast our views.
