    Yeah, very good advice. I'm doing a lot more ATG these days, especially since I shaved off my goatee the other week. I use really light pressure for this and a really light grip, with just two fingers, holding the razor really loosely. I mention this as you spoke of how light a pressure you use now and may not have before. I really think with a skill like shaving, you just keep getting better, but sometimes you realise something and might change your technique based on the BFO scenario you spoke of! :-)
    Stranger, if you passing meet me and desire to speak to me, why should you not speak to me? And why should I not speak to you?
