It has been said that the best way to learn something is to teach someone else.
Congrats on your blog, it is a good start, IMHO. I have been tracking your posts and thinking what an asset it would be if they were organized. Unfortunately, I have been too lazy to do it myself, so I thank you. I will post a comment or two as soon as I recall where I put my logon.
