Well, as an example, I learnt Python to a decent level of competency in 2 days. I looked through the Dive into Python tuts, and then had a look at the Python GUI FAQ (Which didn't really help much, as I started with a GTK based GUI app). A little bit of Googling and a couple of questions to this list gave me everything that I needed to roll out a pretty decent application in 5 days. Oh, and just by the way, I am _not_ a Computer Scientist or anything, I am a botanist, which means that if I can do that, just about anyone that can read can do it. Python has been long on my list of TODO's, and now, finally, it is there. I have immensely enjoyed it so far, and will continue to tinker well into the future. --Paul
