Well, you always have to weight what new things you are learning and 
the experience itself vs price. And I do that more extensively when I 
am paying myself :) (Who is not?) Being able to ask a person that 
knows questions is the real benefit. Plus I guess it's just an awesome 
week. But nevertheless... If I am sitting in a class building RaiseMan 
- than that's not really a good investment from my current POV. I have 
just no clue how it really is :)

As a total newbie I wanted to go ...and would have ... but didn't have 
the time. Right now I am thinking ...I just want someone to answer my 
questions.

But this is getting OT ....maybe let's take that off list :)

cheers
