At one time Rockoff lived in Florida. Knew a fellow that know him well 
and was blow away by his images. This fellow was a tough nut war shooter 
on his own.He was  down shot down by U.S. troops who were busy bringing 
democracy to Panama. If he said Rockoff's images would blow you 
mind...very high praise.
