Thanks.... I think I do a fairly decent job of stropping. I've watched that chapter more than a few times. In fact, if I have spare time, I'll go into my bathroom and strop 20-ish times for good measure along with running my hand up and down the strop as shown in the video. Granted, I could be stropping improperly, but I'm pretty sure I got that part.
