Congratulations, Merrie! See, it DOES work GREAT to start a youngster with an old pro :-) See you at the clinic, and I'm looking forward to seeing you with the new pair there. I'm bringing my own pair too, in case anybody wants to drive my guys. Clinic is in Moorpark, CA , Nov 13/14 at Cutlers. I heard last week that it was almost full by then, but there is always room for auditors. I plan to be there by Fri early afternoon.
