Open source projects do not require previous professional experience to accept volunteers. So, one way out of your dilemma is to make a name for yourself as an open source contributor -- help out with Python itself and/or with any of the many open source projects that use Python, and you will both learn a lot _and_ acquire "professional experience" that any enlightened employer will recognize as such. That will take a while, but not as long as getting a college degree (and it will be far cheaper than the degree). Alex -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
