back in the late eighties i thought to put my hand to stone work as to reach another level of creativity in the skills department-after abandoning the educational process in my youth everything that follwed was-a hands on and learn as you go testimony as to why they are called the formative years and just how important an education is-as the dot com age was gaining momentum and inching its way to espanantial growth in all the worlds a stage-i did the only thing i could to kick start the process-went home to use my moms world encyclopedia to gain some knowledge on cement-and have been learning by reason of aplication ever since when-just like guitar players-rock layers have a signiture or style and to each-well to each his own-this high tech world we live in will not bring an estinction to encyclopedias but the dust does seem to be gathering and in alfabetical order from a to z-if books were to go as did the dinosours go and millions and billions of years marched on-would the books go back to dust or gather into huge resivors and lakes of ink-my uneducated guess would be dust-the abeotic thing makes alot of sense to me-im  just saying-from the desk of and as ever-good day.
