Would you like to learn?

I would; kinda, sorta. 30+ years ago I was trained in CS but I abandoned it for almost 15 years because I didn’t enjoy the available languages. I only came back because Perl fit me and made it all fun (and I was tired of being a poor, artist chump). I would follow, and perhaps pick-up skills, but I could not be a self-starter here and my insight would be limited. I know, again, because I spent 5 hours over the last couple days reading and messing with ExtUtils::XSpp trying to get the most trivial class in DCMTK to work and it just was not sinking in enough to pursue further.
