20-Mar-96 - After 14 years, MCI announces a new "starburst" logo.

Here is where I am supposed to put in some free-form text describing who I am and what my interests are. But I've been busy setting up "The Unoffical ReBoot Home Page", "Pocket Dragon Adventures", web hints (and counters), and the page for our cats. This included writing several perl programs for the web. Avatar of Joe

And learning Java. calclet.java

Not to mention the top-level index for this site.

But my time has been taken up by the process of purchasing the house.

Misc

I love my TiVo.

I've made my new car look like a character from ST-TNG.
My old car is named after the German submarine movie: Das Boot. (It's for sale.)
(Everyone here at Chez INWAP is into Science Fiction and Scottish/Irish stuff.)
I participated in the 1010 project at MIT.

Our Internet connection is a UNIX box; a Sun SPARCclassic running PPP to work an/or Best.COM.

From my old .signature file:
CA license plate: "POPJ P," 36-bits forever! (2 Tymshare PDP-10s still going!)
Humorous disclaimer: "My Amiga 3000/1200 speaks for me." [KV25XBR to RGB]
