At least he's not too cynical where he has lost all hope. He still cares (or did in 1998) enough about his craft to save it and return it to what he considers its glory days, which is admirable and very cool.
I can't begin to imagine how great that kid felt opening a package with a book, some artwork and a nice long letter from one of his heroes. Probably the best day of his life to that point! Not many people have the kind of power where taking an hour or so to do something for someone can have a lasting and profound effect on that someone. Kudos to John.
