Ones mans circular is another mans intuitive. ;) To me I found the example  
easy to follow and to duplicate and understand what was going on.  That begin 
said a lot of it is down to putting what you are used to on the shelf for a bit 
and really diving in. It was only once I did that did I understand just how 
flexible it is. Your never going to innovate if your always trying to put 
everything in the same container, or doing things the same way.

What do you guys think of Modo's nodal deformer layout?  I just looked at that 
growing vine tutorial page and the splash page for the video shows exactly what 
I personally dislike.  Their node connections seem to be really sloppy and IMHO 
could lead to a confusing mess pretty quickly.  They've got connections that 
make circular loops, so there's no left to right or top to bottom flow like 
you'd have in pretty much every other node-based system I've used.

I mentioned it during Brad's webinar and he kind-of brushed it off, but I find 
it really distracting.
