John,

Got to be the most inspirational article here all year. Buddy, you get my vote for this project. Would be great to see something like this spread around the country. Can't think of a better use of ones time and energy. Kudos to your students for sticking with this too. Would be great if they could catch some fish with their own creations. Remember how it felt to actually catch a trout on my own first tie.
