first off. fuck books. when i got into programming nearly over a decade ago i had a huge ridiculously high stack of books. i learned more and have found my time better spent by just doing than sitting down and learning by reading a 400 page tome. fuuuck that. when i read it's for leisure, not "to learn nothin'".
and tommyo, yes you are right. my approach has been to build wrapper libraries that simplify the language. it's up to me to maintain and support them, which should be the job of adobe, but i'm competent enough to get it done. it's just the fact that i don't want or need the hassle. i don't work in the timeline or stage, i do everything programmatically, so my libraries have to be pretty comprehensive and extensible. but this is why i paid for the technology to begin with, to have adobe's coders to pound this shit out for me.
meh, whatever. i really don't care that much. just hate bandwagon technology.
