One, big sh*t-eating grin...!
John,
The second answer is, the instructor was referring to controlling the aircraft in flight. In a taildragger, you lead a turn with rudder before adding the aileron. You still don't get Bob's point, I'm afraid. The point is: How would the air and the plane "know" that it's a taildragger, once the plane is flying? And thusly, how would the plane "know" to behave differently in the air because it has a different wheel (!) configuration? -- Thomas Borchert (EDDH)
