What works to me is fine with me and whether classic Jerry Baker is taken or
not, his advice is like anyone elses, if it works, its good, if it doesnt it
isnt. Just like any other advice in any other part of life, you say thank
you and use what works discard what doesnt. To totally discard all that is
said by a person, just because is silly to me.
