Was learning Pascal and Assembler back then. Like I said took the 3 months off (former communist country, not everybody could afford to have such a device at home) so I had no PC interaction during that time. When I came back to school in October I found my typing was slower. The year was 1994, so over 25 years ago. Learned like every single major programming language ever since, it is my day job after all, the one that puts food on my family's table. Freelancer for 12 years now, I love working from home - it's basically pay to be around my kids. Any more hooks you need?

Was obviously just messing with you but I appreciate the serious answer. Very interesting to me as a fellow freelance dev with far less field time under his belt.
