>I don't feel that I had that steep of a learning curve either. The curve was mainly all the new stuff introduced with VFP 3 then 5. Then comprehending the implications of all the new techniques or features. But I still feel I learn something new each day, if not by my own errors or research, then from UT.

If I learn something new during the course of a day, I consider it a "good" day. If I don't, it's a "bad" day. The latter means that I haven't had the opportunity (because of what I'm doing) to learn something new.
