Anyways, that's my two-cents worth. Anyone else brave enough to

I have a UML2 for Dummies, a Contracting for Dummies, an Excel (old one) for Dummies.....I even have a Play Guitar for Dummies (a joke gift from my son who used it to learn to play blues), and even though I've played for nearly 30 years, I learned some new things from the Dummie book.

I don't really care what the title says as long as I find the content useful.
