agree to disagree.
not to say that he can't make it a pattern on his own. but nothing over three years has shown that he is a dominate personality. i don't think it took josh's struggles to make him realize he was better or worse, should shoot more or less.
i don't want to lose him either.
i just don't think you can say, randomly in feb/march the light came on.
his skills have been a slow, good development, it would be surprising if his personality changed at a rapid pace.
