With people like ABX, Tor, etc. from which to learn, how long could it
possibly take to catch-on?

UGhh, I do have a little programming experience, but I don't like to think
about it. My wife took a C++ (not shur how many plusses they're up to yet)
in college about 18 months ago. On a few occasions when her work schedule
was too heavy, I had to do her assignments for her. It's a miserable
experience, I promise you, writing a C++ program when you have to figure out
how to do every single thing by looking it up in a 300 page book. It gets
even less fun when you figure out how to accomplish the task and have no
idea about the syntax or which files to include.

Awesome. I'm only a couple years older and didn't even have a computer when
I was 8 years old.
