Dear Nikki,
I am totally amazed by the extent of knowledge you give your students,
because I believe it is up to them to decide what combination of techniques
they will use. Some of the concepts on the list I have never heard of.. such
as Elvry, Edwards, Butler... I just wish I went through something like that
in my undergraduate days!!
