I just wanted to thank you for making so much knowledge readily available to the world. I felt that I had to send you this because I had almost sunk my boat in a log jam last Sunday.

They are a lot farther along than guys twice their senior in terms of courage, confidence, and conviction. Their eagerness to learn is a rare trait these days and furthermore, their willingness to forge their own path and follow "the call" is even more unique.
