What college teaches the spelling of the word "amature"? On second
thought, don't bother.

One of the worst mistakes most beginner amateurs make is to aim for "small".

That takes skills you don't have. Trying to cram everything into a small
package will get you couplings you don't want and will result in all sorts
of problems.

You should aim for "simple", but you already knew that.

than all the others.

Yes, Scott, it does matter how you type. The sooner you realize it,
the better your life will become.

If you submit a resume using your current skills, you will be spending
a lot of time at the unemployment office.

Believe it or not, I *am* applying the Golden Rule right now.


I agree that how you present yourself in the written word means a great
deal. But I too would be very interested in following this thread for
the information he is seeking. If the replies are only for him, reply by
email, if you have information the group can benefit from, myself in
particular, please reply to the group.
