He would have to be the tallest, wouldn't he? I can hear him in an interview now: "People say John was the tallest, but I was tall first. See, it's easy for people who weren't there to go around claiming who was tallest, but they weren't there, were they, so how would they know? I lived through it and grew to be tallest. It's not widely known, but I was even tall before John was tall."
If this wasn't so funny I'd be annoyed. John would be doing the exact same thing if Paul had gotten shot in 1980.
