Michael, I'd like to thank you for your enjoyable and informative OCLUG 
tutorial last night, "Introduction to Ruby on Rails".

There are some things that make your presentations "don't miss" events for 
me: your humour; your respect for the audience (I could read everything at 
the back of the room and my sight isn't great); sharing your real-world 
practical experience; and being honest about the limits of your experience 
and knowledge. In fact, the latter is what has really motivated me to 
learn more, because I can see I can get going with R on R reasonably 
quickly, not just after years of applied effort. I tried to buy your 
recommended book right after the tutorial. Thanks for the book reviews 
too. Your point about the importance of good documentation is so true.

I look forward to seeing your slides so I can get the links for the 
various downloads.

Anyone who wants to make a longer presentation would benefit from 
attending one of yours.

Thanks for sharing.

Brett
