Thanks! What keeps me going is that I keep discovering cool functionality.
One that I found early on, and find very cool, is how they use bezier curves to
influence objects. You can bevel bezier curves using simple or complex bezier circle
shapes to create some nice sweeps.
You can duplicate, scale and twist mesh objects using bezier curves. There's just so
much that can be done with them, and it's lots of fun, once you figure it out. (I
think the chain demo was
mentioned before. A great example, but I still haven't quite figured that one out
100%.)
Last night I was playing around with the particle system to create hair and found out
that you can use vertex groups to weight paint the density and length of the hair you
create. Very cool, and it
look very good when rendered. (I have the bright idea to try and create a cute fuzzy
creature using blender. Something hamster-like.)

It's a tough journey, but I still have hope that it will be worth it in the end. :-)

You make it sound really interesting, you know! Not that I need to be
convinced, but I feel my incentive batteries being slowing boosted :-)

It's likely you'll eventually get roped in, then. My interest kept building, because
I kept
noticing some neat images, like these ...
http://www.artificial3d.com/gallery.htm
... that were created in blender, not to mention the Elephants Dream movie!
http://www.elephantsdream.org/
What really got me started was trying to find a 3-D UV painting program. Blender was
mentioned and
I had to check it out (again).
It sounds like you may be in line for some good ol' blender interface frustration too.
:-p Come
join the club!
