As so many others, I greatly enjoyed this trip down memory lane. Thanks for taking us along.

I got my start in computers right out of college working for the NYS Ed department in 1969 and continued programming in COBOL there and later in AZ through the late 1970’s.

Then we moved to Atlanta, had twins, and I became a stay-at-home mom.  I sure missed programming so in January 1983, I got my first IBM PC,  learned dBase and then Clipper and was able to find work I could do mostly from home. We’re back in NY now, but I still maintain a DOS program I wrote in the 1990’s.

Thank you so much for this issue. I’ve been a subscriber forever. Even though I’m long retired, this is still my favorite newsletter, and I really enjoyed reading about all the work that goes into putting it out every week.

Bravo to Susan and Will.  I’ve just made an extra donation.
