RE: RPG hard to learn?

Could I cause a fire storm by saying, No RPG isn't hard to learn because all you have to do is fill in the columns!?

Subject: RPG hard to learn?

I was reading a magazine article that was a thinly veiled advertisement for a tool to migrate RPG to another language running on i. What really caught my eye was "any developer can learn and use [language]", with the implied contrast of "not every developer can learn and use RPG".

I learned RPG a long time ago, and for me it was "falling off a log easy". What do you guys think, is RPG difficult?
