So, I did.
Wow. There are a lot of assholes out there who really get offended just because you're who you are. You mentioned earlier, in other threads, how fragile some world views are, and that anything challenging them can provoke a violent reaction, but it's very different to see that in action.
My condolences, and hats off to you for getting through the bullshit thrown your way.

Fuck. I googled the name too. The first hit was this blog (http://gendertrender.wordpress.com/tag/zoe-brain/).
And I was stupid enough to read that vitriol and the comments section. God, I'm depressed now.

Um. Just a link that might be helpful. I don't know a lot about programming either, but I found out about this site called Coursera where you can take online courses. They have this one that's an introduction to Computer Science course. The actual class hasn't happened yet but the material is available for independent study. I've been following along with the material and it presents it in a way that's pretty easy to understand.
Here's where you can find it: https://www.coursera.org/course/cs101
I think they have other more advanced CS courses as well.

That's a BASIC component of this forum, isn't it?
I thought about computer courses. But I figured even if I COBOLed together what little I remember of math, the best I could do would be a C+, not even a C++.
