Wow, now I know why some of the other guys got into such heated arguments with you - you really do know how to spin people's words, instead of at least attempting to answer an honest question...
I certainly do understand the system - I was one of the first people to use it after the DVD came out and have helped many others. It's comical that several posters didn't seem to read my post - maybe too long for some... I can demonstrate most of the shots you can Stan - well, maybe the curtain ones are a bit much - but I know what alignment and sweep to use for most shots on the table, and yes, it certainly works.
What I was asking was - WHY!!!!! Which you still haven't answered. And the only reason I asked, was because your latest videos - which are good by the way - stirred up that old unanswered question I had from over a year ago that I shoved aside in the interest of just letting the system work. Somehow the CTE and ABC alignments are connecting to the pockets to make the same alignment travel in two different places, just can't put that piece of the puzzle together. Sure it works, but how? I was simply asking if you knew - not mathematically, just visually.
If questioning you is posting negatives, then yes I did. I've never, EVER, said the system doesn't work, or said anything negative about you. I did post things about DVD1 that I thought were unclear, and always followed it up with compliments to yourself and the effort you put in and the effectiveness of the system, both publicly and privately to others.
If I said your videos did more harm then good, I apologize, but I certainly don't remember saying that in that way. If you do then please direct me to the post. I may have said they opened up some more questions. But I have been a big proponent of your support videos, they have answered a lot of questions and significantly added to the content of DVD1.
Yes, I did not call you back, I have simply been busy - 3 jobs, 4 kids and a wife in the final throes of nursing school will do that to you... And while what you asked was a quick thing to experiment with, a few days went by and it slipped my mind completely - actually, very completely until you just mentioned it. I have no doubt it would have worked as you described, but probably still would have left me wondering why. Sorry, just can't help it...
As for editing - yes, I said it would be tough for me to travel to KY right now for lessons with work, family, etc. Were you to extend an offer to help edit the material, I may have made plans to do that as well as some lessons. However, that was not even mentioned. When I emailed you about it, you responded quite some time ago:
"all my editing will be thru dropbox and is pretty much set, content-wise.
Pretty straight forward with no compromise.
I do appreciate your offer."
Apparently you are still editing, I believe that email was about a year ago. That's why I didn't pursue it anymore, seemed like a pretty definitive response.
Anyway, no need to continue this discussion. You awakened the beast with the latest vids and I guess I got tangled up in the why again. It definitely works, as I can attest through personal experience and I can probably use it just as well if not better than most on here. Certainly appreciate the efforts by yourself and people like Gerry and Monte and others to clarify things and continue to demonstrate it's effectiveness. Not sure how I suddenly fell into the "them" category just by asking a freaking question, but I guess that's all it takes... Please continue refining and adding to your material for those who use the system, I'm sure it's much appreciated.
