A Profound Statement
I never noticed this before last night. Then I had a dream about it. My computer at work!

"Eons of manhours are lost trying to substitute effort for technique and trying to eliminate effect instead of cause."

Don't you just love the 'Aha!' moments of TGM? I've been at it for almost thirty years now, and they keep coming.

BTW, the Computer concept includes two units, the Computer itself and the Incubator (where incomplete and underdeveloped ideas have their gestation period). Your insight was the gift of your Incubator. Having done the mysterious, subconscious work necessary, it delivered the concept to your Computer for processing.

Gotta be kidding!
Yoda,

I just gotta know what manner of super - genetically enhanced freakazoid chick hatches out of your incubator these days?

My latest chicks:

1. I finally could see and feel the right forearm's angle of approach, and the golf stroke instantly became 3-D without the dorky paper spectacles! This in turn declassified the forearm takeaway and made it as simple as a one armed man giving an ovation.
2. I realized that club shaft and club head control make for a very good player, but clubface control makes for a great player i.e supremacy of the flat left wrist # 1 alignment in golf

There are more but I will not blither them all at once!

This quote from Homer is so profound, Danny Elkins and I have the quote posted on our teaching bay walls.
