I remember that Dave Thompson said something in the past to the effect that some people will be all right learning thru the Internet, and some will need a more hands-on direct supervision approach.

I have no problem with contributing to the cause, but I still can't get over the questions of...

"How does someone know which camp s/he is in ?"

and

"Who is ultimately responsible if this person gets in the wrong camp and get in real trouble by doing things learnt from the Internet ?"
