I got interested in electronics at age 12 when I checked out a book from the 
school library. The Boy's Second Book of Radio and Electronics by Alfred 
Morgan. I built the photo tube relay that's in there and entered it in the 
science fair. I still have it. One of these days I'll see if it will still 
power up.

When I was a kid my dad made boxes with flashing neon bulbs. He was always 
asked the same thing. He called them nothing boxes because they did nothing :)

It were those little puppies that got me fascinated with electronics and things 
that glow from a very early age :)
