Have seen a article , which made me recall my past marine tanks and I wonder if I am the only culprit (glass box slaughter houses with revolving doors) made me think of those days of( JUST ONE MORE) :?:

I'm with ya Kris.

Complete sentences with punctuation makes things much clearer.

I hate talking to kids that are used to text messaging one another where everything is abbreviated, and nothing is a sentence. I guess I'm just getting old. I'm starting to sound kinda crotchety. :lol:

Lol. Yeah. Well all I have to say is I don't know how any of these "kids" these days can have conversations on telephones. I mean, they do it with such grace and speed it blows my mind. Then I think, its all relative. They grew up with it. I didn't.

I don't like abbreviated posts either. Makes things hard to understand. :)

Just imagine, mine, our kids (if your still young) are going to be telling us they want 20 Terrabyte drives and 30 gig secure digital cards. We will be telling them about how we only had 200 gig drives and 1 gig sd cards. Its funny to think about.

Ummm...I'm way older than that...My first computer was a commodore 64.

The calculator I had to buy for my stats class a few years ago had double the memoy of that computer. :lol:

lol. Can't be that old man.

My first puter was a 286 w/a 3 meg hard drive I think and dual 720k BIG floppies that I got out of the dumpster. Mono monitor too! BOOM! :)

Ive seen commodores, but never played with one.

I wish I still had it, just for the antique angle. :wink:

The commodore didn't even come with a monitor. You just hooked it up to the tv.
Boy were we excited to have that 64mb hard drive. :lol:

Yeah.. its amazing how far things have come in just a few years.

I just wish the public school system would STOP USING MACS and teaching them to kids. I guess they don't realize the rest of the world is using PC's.

no. the punctuation and usage of grammar threw off the effect of provoking thought. Tell you what, we will give you a RE-DO.

Your initial post wasn't thought provoking it was indecipherable.

There's a difference.

We still don't know what the original post was about. Care to clue us in?

C-64 was after the atari. I had one of those too. I learned basic, (the computer language), on the c-64, and was dialing up to BBSs before the 'Internet' had any sort of graphic interface.

In my grandmother's lifetime she went from riding on a horse and buggy to flying across the country in airplanes. I can only hope that tech keeps expanding as fast as it has and my stories will boggle my grandkids minds like her stories used to amaze me.
