Very well stated Gilles, spot on!

I recommend apply WHILE walking through. Or walk through WHILE applying. Or maybe, apply then walkthrough then walkthrough while applying WHILE eating a sandwich. But WHATEVER YOU DO!!! DO NOT put too much thought into it. Just relax and be yourself...but DO NOT let them see you relax too much!!! B...

Too expensive compared to what?
