Mark:
Your thought is most prudent. And your generosity is amply proven. However, I have found that many neophytes are best self-educated by obtaining their own information, following professional instructions, and having a book to refer to in the future. I was there once, and did the same. That was long before the internet however. Still, I'm old fashioned enough to encourage students to do their own research and learn from that. I'm always willing to offer insights however.
Don't get me wrong. I seriously considered giving Charlie the full ticket (as you so generously did)... but he seemed so new to the process that I felt a professional step-by-step would serve him and his new passion a bit better. Not to mention the screw slots of his Parker.
Best, Kensal
