Very interesting. I think you're the first person I've heard say "I don't
like the Pickaxe."

The _Teach Yourself_ book is actually pretty good. I don't think there
is a 2nd edition in the works; and anyway not much of it would change
even so. What did you think of it, anyhow?

And what did you think of _The Ruby Way_, if you looked at it?


Cheers,
