I write this in the public library, encouraged to have a go by that old fashioned thing, a book (thank you Brad Hill)
I have had my bus pass for over a year now, but object to being called a silver surfer, having taken my first computer course over 40 years ago. When you-know-what began, before the Beatles first LP. I was amazed to read just recently that Fortran is still in use in some secret backrooms of the world
How much there has been to learn in between, much of it involving wet towels round head. I even woke on a couple of occasions in the middle of the night to find I was writing code in my head
And how much is of no bloody use any more
