Solution To The Inconvenient Magnetic Timeline

Very nice description, T.

Hope it helps some people understand why they struggle with X, when the moment you “get it” all the struggling just falls away.

Oops dammit, I used the term “get it” which I’m sure will deeply annoy those who feel deeply threatened by someone implying that they don’t “get” something about editing.

This is just not getting something about how X the program specifically works – for the record – not about anyones competency as an editor.
