What do you think about Khatz' method (Heisig books plus SRS)? Are there better ways? How do/did you learn characters? John,

One of the things that's so cool about using SRS in your studies is being able to, at least to some degree, stop actively studying but still maintain a level of capability. I suspect that your output abilities would still go down, but if you kept up your reps (and included listening in the mix) your input abilities could be maintained with very little work. Spirit,

I studied French for years and got pretty good, but now I'm nearly back to the bonjour-bonsoir level because I haven't used it in almost 8 years. Good interview.

Input is the only way to go, and the more of it you get the faster you'll progress, so I'd recommend getting as much as you can stand. :) Joe,

I feel its working, constant input seems to be the way to go. Khatz and his verbal diarrhea always make me laugh, I hope to find the same success he did through his method.
