    I don't think your guest understood how clever your length comparison trick was.

    Thanks Kent! John's been at this a long time, so I'm not surprised he isn't easily impressed. But he's also an old friend… which is another reason he's probably not easily impressed with me, LOL!

    @@gerimi I meant your method of moving a copied layer in multiplied mode is way faster than having to select, copy, move up and down between the layers over and over.

    @@kentjensen4504 Ah that trick! Well, he might not have been impressed in the moment, but the next time he's copying/moving multiple lines, I bet it comes back to him. Some things take a while to set it.

    I admit you're right- I didn't understand how clever it was until i tried it myself and started using it. I think I also have to admit as an instructor that instructors have an immediate negative reaction to "this is easier" - because now we have to wonder- ok- is it easier because it's genuinely better or is it easier because you are skipping over the challenge that is the basis of the lesson? but yeah in this case it was a simpler way of getting to the importance of the lesson faster.
