The good new days, again.

Lee concludes again that the good old days were, well, not bad but also not great compared to today. He spent almoste 50 years developing software, such as:

FOR I=1 TO 10

A=A+B(I)

NEXT I

Memories of FORTRAN, COBOL, ASSEMBLER, CICS, VSAM, JCL, etc. Enough of that. Today, he went to the dentist to get measured for a retainer. A camera in a wand took video of all his teeth, the software stitched it together and formed a 3D image of his teeth. The lab will now use the images to build a perfect retainer.

Isn't computer automation wonderful! The good new days.

Lez is at the Quadra Island quilt retreat.
