<sarcasm> Yes, don't feel bad. Despite speaking, reading, and writing a language (English) for over 20 years, I can't understand a single sentence of Turkish. </sarcasm> Scheme is not hard to learn if you want to learn it. If you make no attempt to learn it, then you obviously won't understand it! We have contributers writing scheme who haven't taken a single CS class, let alone getting a degree in the subject. I have no problem with Jiri's initial request for help, but don't claim that scheme is hard to learn.
