Have you ever worked at a professional job in the past 10 years? Right now, today, mastery of Powerpoint is one of the unspoken requirements for advancement.

Really? I gave seminars for about three years back in the late 1990's. I used Power Point. I learned how to use it by opening it up and firing away. It is simple. I could teach the average high school student how to use it in ten minutes. What's the big deal with Power Point?
