Every few months I keep telling myself I need to buy one of Cliff's Klein bottles to go alongside my (very dogeared) paperback copy of The Cuckoo's Egg :)

Learning all the default VMS passwords definately didn't get me in trouble during High School with the state's herd of Vaxen... I mean the book was right there, in the library! Wink wink :P

You used VMS in high school? You must be old enough to vote!

Blushing slightly, my high school had an IBM 1620, where I learned machine coding, assembler, and that most modern language, Fortran. 1965: punch-cards and blinking panel lights.

Yep, I feel like a fossil.
