voice-over and time beam

[Spape, Michiel]

Hi David et al.,
Although that is a bit harsh, I agree with you that you can't evade the need to be at least a little more skilled in E-prime to succesfully write or even use someone else's programme. Bas and Oison may find it useful to complete the getting started guide by PST and the tutorial we wrote for students - free to download from my website: www.cognitology.eu (publications underneath).
Best,
Michiel

Bas and Oisin,

Perhaps you can answer a question for me.  I often see questions here 
of the form, "I have no experience with computer programming and I do 
not want to get any training in basic computer programming concepts, 
but I still want to be able to write a fairly complex computer 
program."   This always puzzles me.  Do you want to be a psychologist 
who dabbles in computer programming, or instead a computer programmer 
who dabbles in psychology?  If only the former, instead of making 
yourself do something that you are not good at and do not enjoy, why 
not just hire the work out to someone who already knows computer 
programming and actually enjoys doing it, i.e., a professional?  Then 
you can get back to what you *are* good at and enjoy, and everyone benefits.

Thank you for your kind response,
