Nice article. I agree. Ben Stein is a good guy. But he is wrong about the following:

Hollywood stars . . . are uniformly pleasant, friendly people, and they treat me better than I deserve to be treated.

He either hasn't met many Hollywood stars or, more likely, they treat him well because he is a fellow celebrity. While the statement is true of some (Dennis Franz, for example, is a terrific guy and couldn't be nicer to the "little people"), my experience (much of it, though not all, indirect) is that the opposite is the general rule.
