Hey iVenom, where do you ski? We ski at Boston Mills all the time (dad patrols there).

pfff, admin approval is so over rated. I taught a couple people today a mini-lesson during lunch. It was awesome. :)
People that I know? Was it BASIC?

Actually iVenom, I think I'll be teaching the computer class teacher's elective class 2-3 days a week. I'll be teaching the kids how to use Game Maker.

All you have to do is show them a violent video game made in game maker and they will be hooked. GML is easy and fun. I am actually very good at it, so I can give you some tips.
I'm not worried about SOPA creating censorship, that will not stand for long. I'm worried that they'll succeed in stopping piracy!

Yeah. I used to use GM, but I haven't used it in a while since I've been doing a lot of C++, C#, asm, and a lot more linux stuff. But yeah, I'm pretty good with GM as well. I use a not fully authorized version of GM 8 Pro. (lolz). I have converted a few people to programming as well, but I really want to start a club, for more advanced stuff, or more interested people. Anyways, one of my vice-principals asked to talk to me about creating an Android app. I'm thinking I can use the chance to try and get a programming club approved.

Hmm...it's a possibility. But you have to work up to that point. I'll get there. :)

I don't really know. You just seemed like the kind of person who would like it, and understand it. There are some people who just can't program, no matter how they try. But I thought you could, so I thought, what the heck, why not.
