Bill,
Thanks for the great job on this. I picked up some more tips to use the program.

Hide to the top 5 Primary and Total Energy

Bill V. · 12-21-2008, 10:50 AM

The top 5 and the Validator screen

Thanks very much Bill. You put very clearly. I found it in the followup and will do more reading and practising on it.

I'm going to try in on today's races.

Thanks for providing Doc's method so clearly. You have been a real Santa Claus to all members here. A Merry Christmas to all.

Just a followup as to how good your teaching is. After following your instructions as to hiding yesterday, I won races 2.4.8 and 10 at FG and 4,5,7 and 8 at Hollywood. Thought you'd like to know.

Thanks again and have a good Christmas.

Bill V. · 12-22-2008, 08:25 PM

Happy holidays

Bill, thanks for laying out your thought process so clearly. You are a natural teacher, no nonsense, good references to the Follow Up and the method works!

Mum, after we talked this afternoon, I reviewed this thread and went over all Bill's notes, really quite straightforward, as you said. Then I called Doc to wish him and family Merry Christmas and to catch up. I told him about your hits at FG and HOL and how Bill and Richie have been helping you digest what he and Aline B demonstrated in the Follow Ups. Also he said he was touched by your kind words and by Bill and Richie's dedication to helping teach newcomers. He hoped your efforts were keeping you young (if not yet rich).

Doc also told me not to worry so much about how long it was taking me to release my next version of RDSS - just use the software as is, or use Val4 - and when more is available, then use that too. He said given the bad economic times, why be worrying about software perfection when tools exist to ease the pain financially by our parimutuel investments. I felt better. (We also talked about what was up with Canadian parliamentary shenanigans, a big storm and snowfall in SoCal, his grandkids, Mark Cramer's new book, our spouses, etc). It was good to catch up with him again.

Bill, please keep up the good teaching (and winning) work. I can tell Doc is really proud of you, proud that such interest continues in the advanced Methodology (i.e. the point he left it at before his retirement). Despite whatever troubles or mayhem may occur day-to-day, you have the respect of your mentor and should celebrate that.

Thanks.

Ted

The moderators should really consider making this thread a "sticky" thread. It is an excellent example and would be easy for newcomers to follow. Great work Bill!

Ted, thanks for sharing your conversation with Doc Sartin. I hope Doc gets time to visit the board on occasion to see the fine work Bill, Richie, and yourself are doing.
