<><>People don't need college to learn Java. Java's available for
free, it handles the kind of applications an amateur knows & likes to
play with, and it is easy to find help on the Web.
<><>People don't need college to learn brain surgery, either, though
the results MAY be better. I'd actually not argue for "college", but
for mature, skilled OJT. The problem with all too much code on all
sides of the fence is folks who have no training and just hack things
together.

I studied brain surgery once, but never figured out how to get my chain
saw into those exceeding small spaces where most politicians store what
passes for brains. :-)
Considering what we've got here in Illinois, I'm not sure a needle could
find the "Sense of Integrity" center; I'm sure the "Ethics gene" is
completely absent. :-)
