I'm just wondering what the distrust for PRI stems from. What is the 
story that has led to your comments, Lawrence, Jason, and Scott?

I have always had very much respect for Geoff Lawton and his work. I 
don't like the recent online PDC program, but other than that, I've 
found his videos to be incredibly instructive, design-process-oriented, 
and have made an impact on hundreds of thousands or millions or minds. 
Of the media that have reached so many people, I'm not sure how much of 
it was officially released by PRI vs. third-parties.

Sincerely trying to learn,

Chris Carnevale
