>>Student discount? I thought you were done with that already -- last I remember you were at medical school. Are you programming remote operating robots in VFP?

>Yes I have programmed remote operating robots in VFP. Those robots are used in RKTL (www.rktl.fi) for feeding fishes. Also Finnish medical school lasts 6 years and after that you ave to study 2 years for to have private reception AND AFTER thath you have to study 4 to 6 years for special doctor licence. SO LOTS of studying. It is also by the Finnish law that doctor have life long oblication to study for better and better knowledge (ony occupation with that obligation). So I'm still stydying, it is quite never ending process :)

Arto -- my UT Avatar lives "virtually" on the Aaland islands until there is a regime change here in the U.S. I'll tell you, watching my tax money go to greedy-whiney banks' bailouts, Iraq, the military-industrial complex and all of the other crazy things going on here, I've come THIS close to moving my non-virtual non-Avatar self out of here as well.

Feeding fish, eh? Those crayfish look delicious!

Obligation or not, I believe that most occupations, programming included, require continuous learning these days. But that is especially true for doctors, I know. Well, good for you for staying with it...
