The subject article has to be one of the finest, if not the finest ASL article I have ever read.
The detail...the organization...it covered every thing in an easy to read format. The use of a summation at critical junctures of the rules reinforces the detail in a simplistic yet almost mnemonic methodology. The article was neither pretentious nor esoteric...it avoided being overly subtle about what is one of the more subtle set of rules/tactics. I would call it a "blue collar", "in the trenches" explanation of a very broad and hard to grasp topic.
Best of all, I learned something new...and I bet most will also. And that is the highest achievement that any article like this can hope to do for the readership to which it is directed.
This article alone makes J8 worth the cost.
Way to go Carl...
