1-L-13,14,&15, 2-J-3, and 5-0 are brilliant. There should be emphasis on these things, but all of it should be kept in context. It shouldn't be exaggerated into a flaw. I think in anything, one can put the em-PHA-sis on the wrong syl-LA-ble.

The Follow Through was a downstream result. We worked only on the Start Up and Backstroke. "As it goes up, so it tends to come down."

I witnessed one of the self-proclaimed TGM prophets, after his daily walk on water, teaching the "up and in" part, and I was underwhelmed. The student ended up looking like a compass drawing a circle on a piece of paper. The sharp circle of balls that he laid on the ground looked like it would have required a very short radius on a very flat plane.
