Hubby sent me a link to that article a couple of weeks ago.

I do, too. I'm a great example - I can do the memorization of facts, but I don't get the concepts AT ALL. I can remember the formulas, but I can't explain what they mean in the real world, or why on earth you'd use them. I think I'm going to give this a little try. If I can sell MM on it! :)
