Thanks for a great presentation Simeon!
Hey Tom
Glad you enjoyed it. How is your ruby fun going? Found anything you like?
Busy weekend, but I have managed to spend a few hours discovering Ruby. I have to say I’m very impressed so far. I still have no idea what I’m doing
It’s fun being a language newb again! Time to get on Amazon and order some books.
