U dont need that. I live in India. here tha education of u're 12th
class is 'nuff for Game programming. I know all 'bout Matrices.
Vectors. Co-ord. geometry. We're up with all theze topics by tha time
we finish high school. so i dont think itz neccessay fer a guy ta  get
a degree or sumthin'. btw m 17 and i've already written a 3D engine. in
DJGPP.

I'd point u to tha ad fer zhis Mailing List. "We were all beginners
once". Letz say u're tryin' ta learn sumthin' nuw. U'd naturally go fer
help unless u'd prefer ta reinvent tha wheel. I agree to sum pt. that u
should alwayz try ta hack thingz out fer u're selves... but there r sum
ppl. who are not so much endowed. think 'bout them too.

mahbee but since this list is "tolerant of beginners". i think we
should allow BASIC questions. And finding tha rite thing on tha net is
such a pain. I muhself had to go thru several pages of nonsense B4 i
got what needed. I know how it is like when u wanna learn sumthin' and
u gotta run 'round so much 'til u loose interest!
