Your videos are excellent, and I mean excellent. Most good books I read three times, first a quick overview to see what's there, next to get the meat and finally to get what I missed (there is always something) and integrate it with other sources. Your videos are like a good book.

I watched a video last night of someone supposedly teaching. I was halfway through the video and he was still just taking about himself. I quit there so I don't know if he ever did get around to any actual teaching. Such a Texturefrom your videos, which are packed full of information from beginning to end.
