Saluting more golden oldies
This second-generation programmer is going to be hard to beat, unless this thread runs for a very long time.
“I was born in 1935 and am still, at 72, an active member of the BCS, maintaining and supporting Delphi software for the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry Stability Constants Database,” says Gwyn Pettit.
“My father, Arch Coulson, was born in 1905 and was a Fellow of the BCS, teaching maths and computing at Dover Grammar School, and later working at the University of Kent.”
Gwyn has been working in computing since 1960, starting out on a Control Data 1604, moving on to the Ferranti Pegasus, minicomputers and PCs. Now that may be hard to beat. Unless, of course, you know better.
