Thank you, Tom.

I have cruelly edited what you wrote to bring out two points.  

First, I do know what Mr. McGraw teaches, but that is not what was taught at Camp Fasola last month -- at least in one class I attended.  What was taught there (and buttressed, when I questioned it, by reference to the plain text of the 1991 rudiments) was that the beginning of the beat of one occurs at the bottom of the downstroke.  

Two other people had earlier reported to this list the emphasis on the 1991 rudiments at Camp Fasola last month, and I was chiming in to give a specific instance of that emphasis.

Second, is it possible to get a copy of your dissertation?
