The web can be a great resource. I, for one, will continue to do my best to be supportive and helpful to the best of my ability.

The only real issue is that people trying to learn from the printed word can misunderstand. These things are something that can be shown within a few minutes but descriptions do not do them justice.
That and the fact that no two people agree on all the techniques and how, when or even if, they should be used.
I know if I was trying to learn from one of these threads I would have said "screw it" a long time ago and just went and drove my car to figure it all out on my own.
I will still try to assist people when they ask and pass on the methods I believe to be accurate and best and they can choose my info or that of the others as they so desire.
