Editor's note
=============
The debate about whether happy sheets are intrinsically flawed
or simply as good as the questions rumbles on and those of you
in favour of feedback forms came back in force this week. Anyone
looking to hone their happy sheet, shouldn't miss the excellent
examples of how to prepare a feedback form posted by members
over the last seven days. You'll find some valuable advice that
just may help you design a form that may well ensure future
training happiness!
