   I was teaching Rat chemistry classes and Organic lab at VMI in 1970 after 6 and a half years Regular Army, and sat in on programming classes in the civil engineering department, Punch your Hollerith cards, drop them into the bin, come back the next day to see if you did it right. In the early 80’s, I did some programming in Basic on a Timex-Sinclair with up to four functions per key. Finally got my first PC with a huge hard drive of 80 Mb for only $2400 in August 1991. Then I started automating three GC/MS’s in the Dallas DEA lab using HP’s macro language, run by Windows 3.0, Pascal, and HPUX, and the macro language for each one was slightly different. Then I retired in 1995 and haven’t programmed anything since.
