We didn't realize that Jon was going to be involved in "Horse Back Riding" when he enrolled in "Soils" courses at Virginia Tech at Blacksburg,VA back in the early 70's. He never talked about it very much but must have filled a spot on his schedule. His degree in Soils plus the Masters he picked up at George Washington U. must have set him up with enough education to have a great career with the SCS and NRCS as a Soil Scientist. He, like most college educated people use their formal education as a base for their learning a subject but much of their accumulated knowledge comes from the people they work with, "trial and error", and general experience.
