Beginnings I had a dream to produce training videos and publish them on the internet for free. The idea came together when a co-worker made an odd comment to me. He was aware of all the books, the previous video and audio attempts, the website, and the invention of pilot tools. His comment was, "You're the next John & Martha." It resonated with that long term goal that was unspoken but not forgotten. In mid 2009, I decided it was time to make it happen. I was considering taking a teaching job in Missouri. I was unable to accept the offer due to the timing of when they needed me to start. But I wanted the job and it would have allowed me to make videos at the campus TV studio. It was another brush with the unspoken long term goal. It was ok, because I had already decided it was going to happen. So when the job offer fell through, it became a home studio. I began immediately. Well, it's been a long process building a home video studio. Over a year, I have been working on the components in one way or another. It wasn't a full time effort in 2010 as I spent the year working on a personal educational goal which caused this project to slip to last place for my attention. Anyway, the timeline went something like this:
