Beautiful, that is just what I need to read. Thank you much Keith! You deserve a prize.
 
I've read it cover to cover once and keep going back and reading portions again. A lot to absorb in there. Very, very, very worth reading.
 
Finally, a book written by somebody who really knows the stuff - which doesn't impose a steep learning curve!

I will have to remember that. I have a lot of reading to do first though.
