We have come a long way. In 2005, I didn't read anything about:
Can you deliver force without committing weight?
Can you move freely without your balance being vulnerable to pushes and pulls on the line from anus to navel?
Did you develop "heavy hands" and the ability to resist throws and manipulations?
How long did it take you to develop such things?
And not too much about: Are the hips driving your power or not?
Really? And you don't recognize what I said as a legitimate first step? And the last one.... That's interesting. There may be other things to learn, Rob!

However, the point is watching the change from yesterday to today, while saying that there's also going to be some change from today to tomorrow, so be careful out there and keep an open mind.

FWIW
