For some reason this comes across funny to me.  I keep telling everyone
that "if I only had the time I could really produce something".  I never
seem to have the time, so I do not even have only single line of code
posted to my home page. <sigh>

I also learn best by developing.  The last few week (at work) I was
forced
to learn sockets (for Win 95) while working under a very tight schedule.
I am not sure if I would have ever looked into sockets if I was not
forced
to do this assignment by my boss.  The point is...I had to do this
assignment.

Maybe I need to put a Yaroze project on a schedule/time line.  Maybe
then
I would actually do something.  <grin>
