I might have missed something, but nothing about what you just wrote would have struck me as insulting. Interesting some of the teachers you have been involved with. I am pretty pedestrian in my history of gurus, haven't left a trail of boxes in dumpsters in cool places- just that pile of slide books downstairs. I know I won't throw them out because it was an amazing time, not one I want to revisit however, and there are, if I say so myself, some awfully good shots.
