That’s not actual code; I made that up.

Here’s something not made up: Stellar talent Daniel Davis has challenged me to present seven random facts about myself.

I’m not a fan of anything that smacks of a chain-letter, but Daniel rules so I’ll at least spew out some unneeded detail. (But I won’t be inflicting this on on seven other people. Feel free to take up the challenge on your own if you feel so inclined.)

0. Favorite color: Plaid
1. Born and raised on an island
2. First cat was named George Sand
3. First 45 RPM vinyl single bought: Frankenstein by Edgar Winter Group
4. Learned FORTRAN in college by coding cellular automata for a semester. Still do not understand how I passed the Numerical Analysis with FORTRAN course since, oddly enough, CA were not on any test or assignment.
5. Have never skied
6. Favorite movie is Metropolis, unless it’s Citizen Kane or Animal House
