Of course I know that. I've been familiar with the concept for a long
time. I've taught several guitarists and have seen it first hand. I've
also trained several programmers.
Quibbling over the exact number of hours *is* foolish - but nobody was
doing that. I was simply pointing out that you used three vastly
different numbers in almost the same breath to describe how long it
takes a person to master something.
I think we both get the idea - let's back out of this rabbit trail
before we get lost, ok? :)
