Belinda, don't worry about 50, unless you're a late bloomer. It was no different than 49. 40 is the one that killed me. That very afternoon I felt like my body fell apart.
I used to watch my brother, 3 years older, do programming on punch cards. His first job out of college was at XXXXXX Bank in OKC. He wrote a program that tracked loans by loan officer. Several loan officers lost their jobs, IIRC one was a Vice President. IBM purchased the rights to the program from the bank, and marketed it to other banks. I think it had my brother credited, but of course the bank got all the money. He had a terminal where he could write and punch cards at home when he had an idea. It was pretty slick way back when......
My first computer was an Atari 400 with a cassette tape back up. I used it for years playing video games. Wasn't much of a computer, but it was fun to do some very basic stuff on. Jim.

No, I'm not an electrician. Any information I share is purely what I would do myself. If in doubt, hire an electrician!

At a minimum, I'm Pentatoxic...Most likely I'm a Pentaholic. There seems to be no known cure. Pentatonix, winners of The Sing Off, s3.
