Of course. People love to look and sit in good furniture but they aren't gonna go right out and learn how to make it, they'll buy it maybe, but a lazy boy recliner is a much better comfort than is a rocking chair. People sometimes have to be taught an appreciation. You can see this in a lot of different ways... free diving is now becoming more popular because of a few who challenge themselves by free diving on TV. You see it in drag racing at the local strip... basics and skill... you see it in archery... and you can see it in muzzleloading when someone is introduced to it.

I think that people need to be exposed and challenged in the right way.

Aloha...
