I was just thinking that as well. Of course, pointers are not applicable in
CF nor in Java. Come to think of it, I've never used them in Visual Basic
either, but I sure did use them a lot in C++. If you can get pointers,
you're a true programmer. I'm not saying that they are difficult to
understand, just that I would consider that the line between a true
programmer and a wannabe.

I think the most important programming concept to learn is pointers. You
can pooch screw yourself very good if you don't understand these.
