Biology

Got involved working on Oberlin's computer (not academic). Fascinated. I visited Univ of Akron during Thanksgiving break 1968. They had the same computer. They hired me to operate their computer. I transferred to Akron and graduated there in 1969. Jobs:All computers since then. Selling them. Programming them. had two big software hits, Blast and FastTrack sold worldwide. Still working with FastTrack customers after 30-years in business.

For me, academics came after. Yacht Club, Ice Boats, Computers, football, upperclassmen educating the underclassmen (I still know NOTHING about women after 43 years of marriage), My High School Football coach Miller knew Oberlin's Football Coach Grice. Miller also was the choir director (the only guy who could get people to work together). I got expedited into Oberlin to play football with the condition that I would take two music classes each year. Directing class was appealing. Graduating back to Louisiana, I joined a church choir and directed the Resurrection Choir (funerals) for 10-years. The choir fulfilled my need for team sports. Each member has a part, timing is critical, and if you don't have confidence in leadership, chaos ensues. COVID, age, and voice problems have closed doors. Joining this Class-of-69 page is a search for a new direction. I live now in the Great Smokeys, The mountains are calling, and I must go, and I will work on while I can.
