Eric,

my first program was the original Bill Gates MBasic interpreter, took about 20 
minutes to load from one of those tape readers on a
terminal. Wish I would have kept it, probably would be worth something to 
historians (I am one of those dinos, having programmed in
MACHINE LANGUAGE, octal, of course, it was an Intel chip, write the program on 
a piece of papervidushi).
I am getting close to selling my boat, a Liberty 28 (1979, full keel, 4,800
pounds) because of age, just can't keep
up the maintenance. Any takers? I'll train you in sailing the Spanish 
Virgins... 82 degrees every day.

Walter

  When I became an engineering technician we used "paper tape" to run the 
wire-wrap guiding machine.
 That was about 1978 or so.
 Boy I;m old!

 I sold my boat.
 I am now permanently land-bound  :-(
