The Things That You Find Buried In The Back Of A Drawer

I was digging in the back of my old computer desk and I came across an IBM FORTRAN coding forms and punch cards that I used back in college in 1969. Ironically it was from the first time I went to UConn for my EE degree. I only went to the Hartford branch for one semester before I flunked out, now some 40 years later I am going there for my Master’s.

At the time I was learning computer programming on an IBM 1620, it was the only class that I got an A in, all the other classes I got Cs, Ds and a F. One class that I got a D in was English, I improved, but not by much, grammar is still one of my weak points.
