A few days ago the two of us decided that we would begin to learn HTML. We found a free on-line tutorial and started taking turns on doing a couple of lessons at a time, progressing at about the same rate and egging each other on. Then this morning Steve took off. Moving beyond how to insert text, make a header, add color to the background, and create a link, he didn’t move beyond his seat on the sofa in the study. It was evoking great memories of learning Fortan at USF and writing it at FPC. By the end of the day he had invested fourteen hours and had posted a series of interlinked “Hello World” documents to this website. Â A couple of hours later he took them down at least for now but don’t be surprised if at some point we have some pages on this site written by one or both of us in HTML. It’s fun stuff.

G: “Huh, wha? Hmmm. Yes”
R: “Oh. Coding. Right.”
