Right kev, I kinda realized that after re reading the thread title, that is definitely not my intention. Just trying to understand what exactly they are referring to when criticizing someone for being a book literalist, what exactly are they suggesting you not take literal? I guess I'm out of the loop I have only recently become aware of these claims/comments. I suppose I ought not concern myself with what these claims are, just frustrating to read things like a player is now taking lessons from an ai and then saying They hope he isn't a book literalist. Why wouldn't u take the manual that u use to teach literal?
I agree, plus Homer Kelley left a lot of room to add our own flair. YODA does such a great job with this in combining other ideas like the MacDonald drills with TGM. I kind of enjoy the Book Literalist Moniker.
