Having received more than 18 hours of instruction condensed in a 2 day period , the condition of my brain can only be described by adjectives such as overloaded, fried, scrambled, & dessicated.
However, I can honestly say that after spending more than 4 decades as an educator at the levels of junior high school as well as university, Stan has raised the standards of pedagogy beyond any I could have ever imagined.
His synthesis of theory & practice is manifested in his ability to execute every lesson from the most fundamental to the most advanced.
He has scientifically reduced every aspect of the game to its lowest common denominator, demystified it, & operationalized it to a point of efficiency that will permit me to reduce my learning curve by many thousands of hours.
I only hope that I can do justice to the experience as I attempt to implement his infinitely superior text at the table in my basement.
I am confident that my time with Stan will permit me to introduce the agony of defeat to many opponents.
I only wish that I had met Stan when I was 6 rather than 66.
