I run as I learn fumble as I go ;) 

One of my personal problems is that I completely miss the obvious despite
carefully checking and looking... And if im able to fly it's because of
that! hard to explain but I sure am not putting the chariot in front of the
oxen - im not that stupid. Im just a little space-headed sometimes into so
many ideas...

Im about to make a road map into the libraries. It's long overdue.
