Logan helped me with brushing up my Linux skills in areas I was unsure of myself in. I fired off a bunch of requests and he handled them the best he could. He did not lie or make up stuff but was honest about what he knows and what he didn't know. Nice guy.

If you don't know how to do something, he will go over it in many different ways until you really understand that something really well, won't give up, and consistently teaches a ton of new things, whether he goes by his plan or yours. There really isn't anything that he does not know how to do in Java or Linux, unless it is a really rare case that he hasn't seen before(not likely though.)
