That took a bit of guts, John. I find myself in the same position, well 
not age-wise... Just short of 60, I have been teaching myself 
Javascript (still learning), and Photoshop and Illustrator, and now the 
viola, and I see myself as perfectly intelligent, but there are some 
things I just cannot get to work. The list is brilliant, but it is a 
bit intimidating to ask really ground level questions, and particularly 
to ask them over and over until you get some darn thing not just to 
work, but to sing. I'm hoping revSchool might help in encouraging lots 
of questions, otherwise maybe some kind of list for smart dunces.

Ryno.
