He built a computer, the first one I ever saw. It took up his whole living room. It had a teletype and we programed it to play a 3D game printed on paper, Star Trek, it was like Battleship, only 3D. When you told the computer that you fired and hit the enter button it took like 20 seconds before the printer would print out the results of your shot. We killed many trees playing that game.

What is an interesting fact about you? I lived in Berlin in the early 70's, when I wanted to skip school I would ride the S bahn to East Germany, go through customs and hide in East Berlin all day. I figured nobody would find me there. As a result I hate all things communist! It might not have been too smart of a thing to do! lol Have you continued your education past college or university with career development seminars or classes? What kind?
