Thanks for taking the time. I get the feeling I'm right there at the 
finish line and just need one more push.

I have found places you can go to ask for help and get treated like a moron because you don't already know. I have looked and gui's and I swear I will never understand! I am however loving python and perl, they make sense to me. My biggest problem is my methods and my way of looking at programming challenges is horrendously out of date. I'm hoping people will correct me as time goes on and maybe, just maybe you guys can drag me into this century.
