Say one nice thing about the person who sent this to you and be sure to send it back to them: I really sense a kindred spirit in you, Danny Chai, and I am not being hokey or cheesey when I say it. I really admire the class before me -- I really do, just for really teaching me a lot, even though you all probably don't realize most of what you've taught me.
