I just thought this was a cool story--and who better to share it with 
than fellow readers.

FEES WAIVED FOR HERO PILOTPilot Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger III became 
a hero on Jan. 15 when helanded his commercial jetliner safely on the 
Hudson River and allpassengers and crew were able to exit the craft 
safely. Now we learnthis hero pilot is one of us: a library devotee. 
Sullenberger calledFresno State Library recently to ask for an 
extension and waiver ofoverdue fees because his library book, checked 
out from his locallibrary, had been left behind in the cargo hold of 
the plane. Libraryofficials at Fresno State waived all fees and 
dedicated the replacementbook to him.
