PHP for NonProgrammers

This is a friendly programming introduction for people new to coding. We'll take a "Physics for Poets" approach to basic PHP concepts like variables, if/else statements, functions, and hooks. You'll write a little bit of code, speak a little geek, and start down the addictive path of programming logic. Follow up time for one-on-one "What's that?" questions can be arranged after the session.

We'll cover:
* Variables ($variable = where I store my stuff)
* Boolean logic (you can either eat cake OR eat cookies but you must run AND lift weights)
* Conditional statements (if this is true, do that, else, do something else)
* Functions (aka little blocks of "do stuff")
* Scope (sometimes I whisper, sometimes I shout)
* Hooks (how Drupal does all the work so you don't have to write more code)
* Other tasty tidbits if time permits
