These drills sound great, but I'm wondering how they work when the instructors drill you. Is it kind of like a conversation game where you roleplay and certain attitudes and lines are drilled into you?

Scribe,
The drills get you used to the feeling of knowing when to do something to push the interaction along. For example, there's one drill where you practice mini-islolating a girl from her group of peers. There actually aren't any words to memorize; you perform a specific action to do it. After you drill it a few times, when you're in set and completely in the moment, you will start to sense when it's time to mini-isolate and you will do so naturally. Very often, it's not till long after the interaction when I'm reminicing and I realize, "oh yeah! We did drill that!" The drills sensitize you to those subtle moments most guys miss.
Brian,
It was a pleasure learning from you last weekend. We'll definitely keep in touch.
