So what you're calling facts in this post...are opinions.

Elliott Sharp taught prepared guitar techniques to some students, by the way (a good friend of mine was one of those students), but yeah, not to little kids. (Re Elliott Sharp, I'm pretty sure we talked about that a long time ago--shortly after I first joined the site, I think. I wound up telling you a couple people I'd played with, which I usually don't do online.)
