10 Years ago I went to the hospital with chicken pox and the doctor leaned over me and said "That's what you get for kissing chickens." and I burst into tears, and I don't go to the doctor much anymore.

What menneke said. I don't remember when 386's cam out excactly, but I'm 28, and I have personal memories of owning a 286 and a 8086. That rules out the 386. When did Betrayal at Krondor come out? I think played that on my 386.

10 years ago I was a Freshman in college. Right around this time (early December) I realized I couldn't sleep my way through a Steven Tech final they way I did my high school midterms. It was a painful lesson.

10 years ago I wrote a SF short story about the internet, without ever using it before until one year later. It was very realistic though. It involved search among others.

In 1986, i broke the record for the NIIT (National insitutue of Information technolgy – Bangalore) in grades for a course. I made 98%..

'87 – I was into argon/cypton hardkey encryption methods for lotus123, wordstar-2000 and Dbase-II packages. I was the lead production person for shrink wrapped apps from US. (it as a hardkey -copyright gig!!)

'87 – assembled via debug an attack of 2 bytes. (yes, 2 bytes worth of code inserted into the startup Batchfile, rendered a call into the tech support!!). Also tweaked Norton Utils, to render PSP (program segment prefix pointers to short jump, that invokved TSR (Terminate stay resident) keylogger ..heehehe wicked me!!. This worked over an NDS (novell Services)!!

'88 – India's first install of 386 base of BELL AT&T UNIX distro.. the pack come on 5 1/2 inch disks and tapes...over 18 of them.. The sysadmin, userguide , whatnot manuls streched across a 6ft of shelf!

'91 – Write a PROLOG app – that eventaully got infused into a DoD mission (10 yrs later). It was basically the game "digger" , morphed into 3 axies. (X, Y, Z nodes) and could recogonize the terrain and find the closet exit!! (now read as target.. in DoD speak!!) :)-

..ok ' nuff said.. yesterday for me was ages ago.. I worked for an F50 company and sat on working groups that filed in DHS / BCP and CBSA..

10 years ago seems like as if I was from some other world...

If only I knew then what I know now...

The world is ever changing, and will do so with or with out us. Make the best of what you have and don't take for granted what you have learned...
