We DID get to see all of the really cool bands: didn't we?

That is... before they all started looking like Grandpa!

I'm a city girl living in a high-rise in Los Angeles but I'm also an adventurer. So LATraveler it is. Love to park my bed next to the sound of water; put my line in the creek in the morning or watch the dolphins play in the Pacific while working at the dinette. Am doing a lot of tinkering and learning from this forum. AND enjoying the banter. Have gotten some big laughs.

[QUOTE=mcr1010;158049
My screen name came from a time when the dawn of main frame computers were arriving on the scene, before Apple and MS. After using line by line Unix, driving CAD on a DEC machine, low and behold a graphics interface showed up called Mosaic. Shortly thereafter email as we know it came about.
Ok enough history, I'm almost as old as Bob D.. Now for my screen name or moniker; it is my initials with two easy digits.[/QUOTE]

Here’s where I date myself. In my first job after graduating from college I was a member of a group that did dynamic simulations of refining and chemical processes using a combination of analog and digital computers - known then as a hybrid computer. The analog side did modeling of fast processes and the digital did all the complex work, such as thermodynamics and equilibrium calcualations.

The first digital computer we had was programmed with paper tape and a KSR-33 teletype machine. Took all day to attempt to compile. Result was short error tape (run through the teletype to find out the error) or a long one that might be a core image tape. After a couple of years, we got a new machine that could use punch cards. Eventually we became gentlemen and could use line editors. Far different world when you would bug hunt by stepping through a program instruction by instruction and read the lights to see what was going on.
