problem with learning maya, or re-learning for those that used and went to si never to look again, is that if you learned maya first then you "learn" that is is normal to run into daily issues and then spend hours going around them. not knowing how it is done better makes it"easier": " to live with Maya. But after working in Softimage yit is simply really really ahrd to push yourself to do anything in Maya when you know so much easier and better way for same task in Softiamge.
