Illustrator Tutorial: Pen Tool

umm, can we have an Illustrator tutorial category?

This is an in-depth beginner tutorial of the Adobe Illustrator pen tool. All you need to get started and a little more (considering you already have illustrator). I want to do a couple more about predicting where curves will go, and how to CG. Depends on how this goes I guess.

This should all work for several versions, maybe as far back as 7.0... I made it in CS and tested it in 10 so I know those work.
