My programming experience consists of a high school course of QBasic, which the lot of the students passed by flirting/bribing the class alpha geek into writing our assignments for us and then holding massive Solitare tournaments. smiley - smiley

Matina? Some cinnamon toast and a flowcharting template, please.

Cobol? You are a twisted woman my dear Lil. I love it! I was thinking that to *really* the hang of things, machine would be a good language to lear too Alas, all I program are routers and firewalls. I got sick of C in a few minutes. But I think I need to learn it again (And perl) when I get linux up on one of my boxen. Shell scripts are fun right?

*sneaks a pinch of blue powder into Odra's drink* We'll not have any more of that binary talk around here then.

*going over to corner with bucket of water and meat* Well, Violet, the second head is well in bud now. Here's some steak tartare and a long drink. I'm sure you'll be stunning.

Tea, please, Matina.

*laughs and stirs*
l can't even speak English properly with this blue stuff about, let alone assembly...smiley - bigeyes

When Violet's next head blooms, will she still be Violet, just with an extra head, or should we name the other head as well?

*the cat wanders out of Odra's room and climbs into her lap*
No, dear. You don't drink cocoa. Hey, get your whiskers out of there!
l'll sic Violets One and Two on you...

And I am L.I.L., Lifelike Intelligent Lifeform.

As for the second head, why don't we just start calling her Violets?

And I am P.H.I.L.: Positronic Hazardous Infiltration Lifeform, quite likely I'd say smiley - tongueout

As for the geeking talk, me and a friend just tried (and failed) to get hello world to compile on a machine from the dark ages - well 1988 - a motorola VME 68K system runing sysV 68!
Still we should be able to get netBSD running on it smiley - smiley

Between the explosion on the USS Cole, the latest things in Israel and the black hole opening up in the Dow, it's a little difficult to get around the net just now. Jittery news. And all interrelated.

Sigh.
Someday l would like somebody to sit me down and patiently explain the Mideast to me, because l honestly never have understood.
