Thanks Alex! Appreciate the response. I'm always learning but I was a special education teacher for a while too so I've got some perspective on getting people to understand things.
In regards to your side comments:
1) If you feel like there's too much text compared to short queries, that's fine. I'm not there to write gigantic amounts of code. I'm there to learn and write a few little snippets to understand what I'm doing.
2) As I mentioned in my response to coffee, it's much better to actually type out the stuff as you go. It sinks in and immediately starts to develop a feel for writing in the language. Especially considering the non-traditional querying that you've come up with, I think it's very important to take baby steps and treat it as a new language. To continue along the language analogy: teach us each word so we know what the sentence actually says.
