But in this particular discussion, are you asserting that you are a prodigy? If not, are you denying [USER=6785785]@hawkeyefan[/USER]'s conclusion, inferred from your posts, that you have little experience with the collaborative approach that he has described? And if not - so you are neither a prodigy in respect of that approach, nor particularly experienced with it, what is the basis on which you assert that it is not viable? What distinguishes that assertion from mere speculation or conjecture?</blockquote>
