This is cool! I share a birthday with a really ancient programming language!

That is cool! And what's even cooler is it's one of the few programming languages I actually know! I have some old D&D rpg games written in BASIC lying around here somewhere, was thinking of typing them in to play them a while back :)

You too, huh? I know I did the same thing, D&D programs and later Twilight: 2000 on the computer. I also remember typing a program from a 1985 Byte magazine that simulated a nuclear blast into my Apple //e and I used it to map various nuclear targets for my Twilight: 2000 and Gamma World RPG games I ran. Dang all this talk about early computers and my listneing to early 80's music, makes me want to dig them out right now, but I got to get work on my webpages or my clients will come hang me. B-)
