Your comment about knowing three ways to explain something reminded me of that statement that people always make... "Those who can't do... teach!" I've never really understood the expression, it seems sort of offensive to me (as a teacher). I think teaching is a more important skill in a way than doing. It's great if you can do a math problem, but your understanding is generally about a thousand times better if you can explain what you are doing clearly (even if you are using doodad or whatchimacallit to explain yourself). Just a random thought.
