TJ -- this is great! Cause he's not teaching you *Access* -- he's helping
you learn how to 

(A) Plan -- something sorely lacking in many programming environments, if
you believe _The Deadline: A Novel About Project Management_ [available from
amazon.com -- I HIGHLY recommend it -- the author and TJ's teacher are
kindred spirits]

(B) Think in Systems and Relationships
