Thanks Tim. The basics all in one place! I had forgotten about these and they make a lot more sense now than they did a couple of months ago.
Getting a better and earlier understanding of the TOS platform will help accelerate the options learning process especially for beginning students. You can present the basics of TOS better than TOS.
