there may be someone out there who has grasped the book in its entirety without the help of an ai or homer kelley, but i doubt it. it is too abstract , dense , and there are too many propositions to keep track of. 42 years worth !! more regurgitation , ' the "whole picture" is your total visualization of all the individual visualizations of specific areas. both the total and individual pictures must , in their beginnings , be vague and disjointed . but...'

which is i think your idea of the book as a pdf and having multimedia demonstrations is great . a few years after i started reading the book i thought of the multimedia demonstrations . it would have made it much easier for me and it would make it much easier for the masses .

will it happen ? perhaps someday , but all great revolutions take a collective effort and the work that all of you are doing on lynnblakegolf is great ! but if this is not enough , we may someday need , in order to drag the golfing masses into their necessary future , reeducation camps !!
So let me ask you this . . . . first of all keeping in mind that I would say that Homer Kelley was definitely the greatest "golf mind" of all time and one of the the better minds of our time . . .

Do you think the Golfing Machine is a great BOOK or a great CATALOG or just great INFORMATION?

Homer Kelley took upon himself a very ambitious task in writing the book and trying avoid any reduncancy . . . . do you think he succeeded in his task? Would the book have been better as a true CATALOG with supporting volumes to gird his foundation? I'm mean the dude has 80 plus hours of recorded classes of him talking nonstop. Not many people can talk 80 hours about anything . . . and that was just the RECORDED classes.

I think the Machine moving forward would be MUCH BETTER SERVED by truly bringing organization to his works. Rather than trying to add to them. We could organize his words rather than PUTTING WORDS IN HIS MOUTH.
