Richard Bach&lt;br /&gt;I have not read works from or listened to lectures from either person in decades but I still feel the influence from their books I read starting more then 20 years ago.

Something I believe to be an invaluable skill for an architect.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2261082171935353095/338898189266635167/comments/default/2532569251577532'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2261082171935353095/338898189266635167/comments/default/2532569251577532'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://blog.theeffectivearchitect.com/2009/06/know-yourself-and-identify-areas-for.html?showComment=1244098395567#c2532569251577532' title=''/><author><name>Jeff Baker</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://blog.theeffectivearchitect.com/2009/06/know-yourself-and-identify-areas-for.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2261082171935353095.post-338898189266635167' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2261082171935353095/posts/default/338898189266635167' type='text/html'/></entry></feed>
