I've made the analogy before, but at what point did I go from "THAT KID'S
going to work on our computer??!!" to an "old hand"?  I actually had to take
an 8" disk to work this week in order to prove to my co-workers that they
ever existed.  I'm not THAT darn old (not even middle age in my book), I just
started early!

Sorry, but my "Depends" are on top of the Geritol and I can't get to it...
