Just want to say, Paul is a great teacher.  He taught me at ACM many moons ago and I've returned for private lessons to fill the gaps in my knowledge. 
I point vaguely in the direction of what I want to improve, he has it all laid out on a plate waiting for me.  I digress with something vaguely related, he ties it all back up.  Couldn't recommend him enough.
