Sounds like a good way to fill some time but the doc 
cleared me to go back to work on light duty, so I'm not 
looking for time fillers any more.

Besides, when it comes to electronics I'm a fine 
welder. I just can't seem to keep the smoke in. <sparky 
grin>

I wrote a couple Basic programs way back. It gave me 
the confidence to buy a book on C which got me in touch 
with reality again.
