I remember Michael's incredible patience with me as I was trying to break into the script-writing field. He could easily have brushed me off (as many here did in those days) but he was wonderfully understanding and encouraging. To all who aspire to the craft ... you can never go wrong by taking a leaf out of this great man's book. I regard Michael Pate as having greatly contributed towards putting Australia on the map, something we can all be very proud of.
