Thanks for snipping all the actual helpful stuff I posted, it makes SO
much easier for me to be snide!

You can find a few examples of me demonstrating the subject of your
interest by searching for my name e.g. on video.google.com; searching
for my name on Amazon will show some books using similar techniques, and
searching for my name on groups.google.com will find about 50,000 posts
many of which exhibit essentially the same approach.  Unfortunately, I
can't currently offer such courses commercially while staying employed
as Uber Tech Lead for Google, Inc, but if the monies on offer make it
worth my while for me to drop million bucks worth of stock options, plus
a vigorish for my other comp package _and_ the incredible amount of
happiness I get every day from my job (where I get to interact with
truly brlliant people, who, if and when they "leave an erroneous snippet
in", are GRATEFUL to me for pointing it out, rather than RESENTFUL and
DEFENSIVE), I'll surely consider that most seriously (as long as the
monies in question are in escrow for my personal reassurance).

Until such conditions should obtain, I'll just have to keep freely
helping the people who are WORTH helping, and poking sarcastic funs at
those who prove themselves ot be a waste of oxygen instead.


May you have the life you deserve,

Alex
