  It sometimes helps to talk to yourself also. ;)  (And

Yes, but it's too easy to get "lazy" talking to yourself. After all, you
*know* what the problem is. If you are doing it for an external "audience"
(or think you are), you are more meticulous in specifying the exact nature
of the problem. That's what makes it superior.

BTW, when/if I actually get into full-on programming, I'm sure I'll have
questions that don't solve themselves just by being specified clearly. ;-)
