Non-progrmmer wants to learn.

[signman at netdoor.com]

I've done nothing more than write batch files in the old dos days. I
enjoyed it then and am hoping now I can teach myself Python. I know
nothing about programming.

Am I biting off to much?
Is there a step by step guide on the net?
Is this the language to start with?
Am I to old for this stuff (my Grandchildren type better than I) ? :)

Thanks in advance for any help.
