Although this is an Old Link from 3 years or so ago I feel I need to say one thing. Leo Fender the founder of Fender guitars the developer of Fender guitars and amplification engineering was not a musician. He was an engineer, and he found a way to engineer not only a guitar product line and a process for building a guitar that was affordable and could be put into the hands of many a young fledgling student (and professional) at a very affordable price. It doesn’t take a musician to develop a new way or process to enhance the instrument or the process of learning an instrument.
One of my favorite piano instructionals is a book entitled “How to play piano despite years of lessons - what music is and how to make it in home” by Ward Cannel and Fred Marx. Kudos to both!

I'd like to see the downhill courses open to the snowboarders during competition with the downhill racers armed with bats.......It would still be a timed event but bonus points for the number of boarders clobbered.
Next thing you know, Aristotle will be exposed for not having a philosophy degree. And that Michelangelo guy? Yeah, he had an apprenticeship, but never went to a credentialed art school.
