I am adding this concept to my bag of tricks. I have already begun
experimenting with a couple of students.

I never really thought about it in this respect. I have really been
investigating what I do more closely. I am pretty sure I do the tip (a
little farther back) approach.

The discussions on this list are helpful reminders for some of the things
taken for granted and certainly help me become a more informed player and
teacher.

THANKS TO ALL!
