Re: Time

Given what you've just written I'd probably personally write you off
my list already. If you're too busy to do some simple reading, you're
new to programming and you're already busy - loading up more work
isn't the greatest idea, but that's just me. As they say "if its
important enough you will make time" and time is one of those things
that sooner or later something has to give when you run out of spare
time.
