Yeah, I thought it did. What surprised you the most about the fact
that you could learn from yourself?
Dustin:
Um, being able to. Yeah, because I9ve usually learnt stuff from
someone else.
David:
Yeah. Yeah. Did you like being your own teacher? Do you remember
we talked about if we showed this videotape to people in Dallas and
San Francisco, you could also teach them a thing or two?
Dustin:
Mmm. (He smiles, seemingly thinking about the prospect of that.)
David:
Do you like the idea of becoming a teacher to yourself and others
rather than just a student?
Dustin:
Yeah.
David:
You know when you learnt what you9d already known the other day,
what do you remember about that?
Dustin:
Um, you can actually beat something by not actually thinking about
it.
David:
Yeah. Yeah, just doing it?
Dustin:
(Nods) Yah.
David:
And do you think you had learnt something, but you didn9t know that
you knew it?
Dustin:
Yah.
David:
So that when you needed it again you couldn9t call it up? It wasn9t
written down or anything, was it?
Dustin:
No.
