Retired from a career in Systems Integration configuring systems for "Clean Room" monitoring - for Electronic manufacturing, Phamaceuticals and Aerospace. Traveled over 1,000,000 miles in 10 years the world over doing this. Since retirement have learned HTML and build websites for a little extra $$. Now - I am trying to get a handle on Perl - as many of my clents for websites want special things more specific than the "free" code available on the net. Love what I'm learning - but spending 10 to 12 hours a day in front of this machine learning it, is not endearing me to my family - nonetheless I am so very grateful to all who respond to my "newbie" questions. I try to be careful I never offend or ask questions I have not spent at least a full day trying to find an answer on my own. Thanks for reading. May the sun always shine upon you!
