- I'm trying everything in my power to get my SO interested in
- learning to program, but he won't do it. He won't even write
- "Hello world". He claimed that he had a bad experience in college
- and it has ruined him for programming forever. However, he can
- write a huge convuluted DOS batch file faster then I can blink.
- Go figure!
- Anyway, if anyone can think of a way to lure him into wanting to
- learn programming let me know. There hasn't been a lot of demand
- for his current skills and I'm sick of hearing about Jerry
- Springer.
