Excellent!

I believe you have hit on something revolutionary!  The most valuable learning
experiences I've had during my lifetime have been those where a mentor has said
to me, "Let me show how that works.", or "This is how I do that.".

It is one thing to have a full tool box at you disposal, but having expert help
describing their use is most valuable.  Many years ago while learning the fine
art of tuning diesel engine valve settings from an old hand I learned the many
different ways to use a screw driver and box-end wrench effectively.

I look forward to seeing your idea implemented both on the web site and in the
user manuals!

Bravo!
