Ugh. Just. Ugh. IIRC my optional school Java course and the level of
language knowledge I gained from it correctly, having come to a mailing
list of an equivalent level, I'd simultaneously annoy and depress the
hell out of myself both ways.

In mildly related news, I'm also getting a migraine trying to understand
the above paragraph. There's a Ruby Quiz idea, a natural language
processor that can syntactically untangle my rants ;P
