Hi Steve,


Small note: can you turn on HTML email in your mail client?  You may not
know this, but your email has embedded HTML tags, and some folks may have
difficulty reading your message because of those tags.


See "Configuring Mail Clients to Send Plain ASCII Text":

    http://www.expita.com/nomime.html

for details on how to turn off HTML email for the common email clients.

Most any kind of programming language will probably help you, and Python
is a good language to start off.  Take a look at:

    http://www.python.org/topics/learn/non-prog.html


But avoid just studying the language syntax alone --- a language is
associated with a living literature, with applications that affect people.
It sounds like your class in Visual Basic focused a bit too much on the
syntax, and not on what kinds of things can be said in that language.


What sort of things are you interested in?


There's a lot of interesting programs in Useless Python:

    http://uselesspython.com/

They show the sort of things that people here can program with a little
bit of code.



Good luck to you!
