I was a college student in '88

the house I grew up in is worth @ 120k and is near hickory hill. Not privileged. Dad just had a friend that put wrecked cars back together and he figured I may need to get away from trouble quickly.

I was just picking prep.

TFG, you are thinking about the Ruby Tuesday on the corner of 17th and Cumberland. It opened in 99.

I was a freshman in '89. I remember Fortran, the computer lab in the bottom of Glocker, and the that walker dude.

I graduated in 86. should have been 84 cept for a 2 year binder.
Fortran was obsolete by 89. All my computer classes were a waste because of the boom. Card readers, yippee!
One of my CNC machining programs I wrote was actually feed through a tape punch and it punched it into like a ticker tape and it was read by Helen Keller.:blink:

Mine too. I found someone that would type em for $10. Fortran (with the cards that you had to stand in like to have run) and COBOL were awful.
