That is why I decided to take a .NET class at the local university. I have had a lot of inquiries about my availability for .NET work and I wanted to have a conceptual peg to hang things on.

I have had the same experiences. If somebody were to go back to my beginning on the UT they would find many beginner questions. I probably would have spent my time wiser by investing in some books, some training, etc, that would have built me towards the answers I needed instead of just giving me the answer.
