I want to sit down with someone in chicago area and help me get going  
with ruby. Help me to configure IRB and show me how to create a good  
debugging environment. I want to work with Mechanize, but I can’t see  
what is happening behind the scenes.

We could meet at a Panera, or anywhere else, and I am willing to pay  
you for your time. I live in the West Suburbs of Chicago, Downer’s  
Grove.

Thank you,

Joe.
