I don't know what I'm talking about half the time either Katherine. I just
think I'm getting it and then I see something that makes me think I'm not
getting it. So I ask- to double check myself and it doesn't make sense-that
tells me what I'm thinking is wrong(or I don't present it properly). Either
way thanks for your time, I'll just keep reading and trying to learn more.
