[sdiy] open letter to Aaron Lanterman

[Paul Perry]

I apologise if anyone got the (mistaken) idea that I was attacking
Aaron in any way.
I merely came in with a tangential comment that the current tendency of
multinational semi manufacturers to provide video talks instead of
written articles is an unfortunate step back.

I would be the first to agree that Aaron is doing terrific work. The only
young people who have been any use to me as employees, have been
ones who actually built their own stuyff, just as they do in Aaron's
classes.
