Okay, I will check that out, thanks for that info!! (NoPoCoNi and
SePoCoNi on Mondays and Thursdays on http://calagator.org/)

The bioinformatics people down here mostly program in Perl. I suppose I
could hit up an computer science undergrad for Python...the grad students
are usually busy but who knows...
I like excuses to get out of town though to the big city.

I'm hoping to hone in on someone who is confident in tackling such tasks
with coding prowess and paying them for tutoring.

The monthly meet-up is a good place to meet and drink with Python
programmers, but a better venue for sitting down and looking at your
work might be one of the coder's nights in town.  Look for NoPoCoNi and
SePoCoNi on Mondays and Thursdays on http://calagator.org/

Out of curiosity, what values of "insane" are we talking about here?

I'm sure we're worth the trip, because Portland is a great place to be
and all the best programmers love Python so we're awesome and
everything, but I'm a little surprised that being in a university town,
there aren't resources a little closer to home for you.
