Hi David,

Yes, that was my concern as well. I've provided your feedback back to Adam
on the server - he's a fan of your work as well as the Jones/Flynn book,
and I'm guessing that's an oversight since I'd mentioned balance to him
previously (and he's seen your earlier YouTube video).

Cheers,

Murray

     The rice leaves in the garden
     Rustle in the autumn wind
     That blows through my reed hut.
