Reluctant software developer for almost 30 years. I became a programmer because purchasing software was too expensive for a college student and I kindof got stuck here. I guess it was my destiny. I first programmed on a TRS-80 Model III with a tape drive "cload ...". My friend's mother had a work computer ... AT HOME! If you know what an acoustic coupler is can I get an Amen?

The rest is a blur of self-taught programming hacks(with a brief stint owning a computer store before Dell wiped me out). And now I'm here doing this instead of working.
