Bumper,

Did you go to TI or Lakes? I was a year behind you at TI. Retired in
84.

Ed,

To keep it somewhat "on thread", I'll throw in the now very non-PC method
they taught us for remembering the resistor color codes:
Black-0 Brown-1 Red-2 Orange-3 Yellow-4 Green-5 Blue-6 Violet-7 Gray-8
White-9
Bad Boys Ra_e Our Young Girls But Violet Gives Willingly

Treasure Island.

Joined in March '63 - out in late '70 and then PD for 10 years. Started
alarm company (sort of combining electronics and law enforcement), invented
some tools for running wires etc.

There's less money in inventing toys for gliders - - but it's more fun.
