I need a hero

Al Gore is still on lots of minds, of both fans and foes. And in the Daily News editorial office, it got us talking today about the nature of a hero. What is a hero? If someone is a hero to me, and not to you, are they still a hero? Are there rules? Does one have to have an official letter of heroness to be called one.?

Naturally, there's a Web site all about what a hero is, called find a hero.

And because now that Bonnie Tyler song "Holiding out for hero" is probably stuck in your head, here's a Youtube clip of it in a scene from the 90s teen cult film, "Footloose."
