Juergen,

Sorry, forgetting to think world-wide on this web :)

Paper is from SF Bay Area, CA, USA, his column is syndicated from Chicago.
You can check out his column at:
http://www.chicagotribune.com/technology/columnists/chi-jamescoates.columnis
t

look down for May 10 column (I guess it was reprinted in today's paper),
titled:
"Visual Basic opens door to programming"  (I know, *poor* title!, doesn't
even reflect what he *said*!!),
although you have to register for free at the Chicago Tribune site to read
it, sigh.
