He will learn from older people who are not writers, he will learn from writers, but he learns it -- you can't teach it.
William FaulknerWe will learn no matter what! Learning is as natural as rest or play. With or without books, inspiring trainers or classrooms, we will manage to learn.

Sometimes I even like them better than my own tracks.

Understanding must move with the flow of the process.
Frank Herbert
