This makes me feel old.

In '92 I was maintaining COBOL code for a custom written warehouse management system for a wholesale boat bits distributor. The company that wrote it had lost almost all their COBOL devs, and were all in on Windows NT application dev.

I hate to admit it to myself, but I am in fact _just_ old enough that I could have cs grad aged grandkids, if I'd had kids early and they'd also had kids early. :sigh:
