For the record, I got the idea that Hexum was an Engineer from Hexum himself. He made the statement on the ‘Alan Thicke’ show, way back when Alan had a daytime talk show here in Canada. Of course it’s possible that it’s not true, and that Hexum said it to try and get away from the ‘pretty boy’ image he’d been carrying around.
