Re: OT: How old are you ?
You may have difficulty using these phone numbers.... I was Born March 9, 1956 in Shreveport Louisiana (Caddo Parish).
Resume of Lonnie C. Clay as of Aug 21,2001
3395 Harrell Road Arlington TN 38002-4261
Home Phone (901) 867-3152 Email LCClay1@aol.com

I am a software engineer. I can work alone doing all development from design concept through final code optimization. In this mode I can write 500 plus pages of new debugged and optimized software per 2000 hour (standard) work year. I have experience at all levels of computing : logic design, board design, firmware, system functions, application interface, and user level applications. Since 1974 I have written over 4000 pages of software. I can work with less experienced engineers or software developers to debug or optimize existing software applications. Depending on the application and maturity of the code, I can audit over a thousand pages of software per year reading the source code.
Since 1990 I have been writing software at home, playing computer strategy games, and reading science fiction. This has generated no income, and I am now ready to go back to work.
W O R K H I S T O R Y
Contract Engineer, Ralph Kirkley Associates July 1989 - May 1990
I worked at IBM Austin to develop assembler language instruction sequences using RTPG and SYSSIM for logic verification of the standard cell VLSI design for the SJS Version of the RS6000 processor. For reference call Doug Balser at 512-838-2526. VM through IBM PC.
Engineer, Lockheed July 1987 - July 1988
I worked in the Shuttle Engineering Simulation lab at Johnson Space Center. My primary assignment was audit of all vehicle ascent phase math models and simulation software except flight control software. This included vehicle mass properties, aerodynamics, engine thrust, equations of motion, actuators, sensors, and controls. I also wrote new software (FORTRAN 100 pages) implementing a multi-body dynamics model for robotic manipulator systems. When required I assisted other engineers and programmers in analysis/debug of simulation problems. For reference call Bernd Strassner (Lockheed) at (281) 483-1770. Gould/SEL 86.
Public Domain Software for Commodore Amiga Sep. 1986 - Jan. 1993
I worked on my Commodore Amiga 1000 under Amiga DOS and Workbench. The five disks of C language source code (1400 pages) are available by request if you have an Amiga computer. I wrote applications for software development tools, a game, and a music application.
Senior Engineer, Datapoint Dec. 1983 - Aug.1986.
I worked in Datapoint test engineering manufacturing support to develop an automated test system (DASL > 1000 pages) for dynamic burn-in of Raven, Phoenix, Tlxap, Mustang, and other products. I also wrote a configuration control system (CHAIN 200 pages) to automate software development based on a configuration file. I designed hardware and wrote firmware (Z80 assembler 400 pages) for a network interface test fixture and a DLL multi-user processor for network/RS232 interface. For reference call Raymond Morford (210) 492-9258, Raymond Metzger (210) 681-0455, Bill Evans (210) 699-6264, or Denny Hassinger (210) 497-7025. Datapoint 8600, Z80.
Software Engineer, Boeing May 1983 - Oct 1983
I wrote embedded software (Pascal 240 pages) for the signal analysis and synthesis component of the avionics systems test set product. PDP-11, HP64000, M68000.
Programmer, NL Industries/McCullough Mar. 1982 - Sep.1982.
I wrote real time software (TDS-11 200 pages) for analysis of oil well down-hole wireline logging for a density/porosity tool. PDP-11.
Engineer Associate Senior, Lockheed Sep. 1979 - Sep. 1981
I worked in the Shuttle Engineering Simulation lab at Johnson Space Center. My primary duties were writing and maintaining software for real time flight simulation. Most of the work was in Fortran (600+ pages). For reference call Bernd Strassner (Lockheed) at (281) 483-1770. Xerox Sigma 5, SEL 32/55, AD10, PDP-11.
Student Programmer, University of Memphis July 1975 - June 1979
I worked part time for the Center for Nuclear Studies to develop a system for automatic isotope analysis from gamma ray data (Fortran 500 pages). Xerox Sigma 9.
Student Programmer, University of Memphis Sep. 1974 - June 1975
I worked part time as a remote batch terminal operator to provide assistance in debugging software and using the computer. Xerox Sigma 9.
E D U C A T I O N
BSEE 1979 (Summa Cum Laude) University of Memphis, Herff College of Engineering, Department of Electrical Engineering (901) 678-2175 For reference contact Dr. Jermann (678-2927), Dr. Halford (678-5381), or Dr. Bray (678-3258)

Re: OT: How old are you ?
I am male, 28, unmarried, living in Knoxville, TN, USA. Have a BS in CS. Been trying to work for the Last year as an independent computer programming consultant, but not making enough dough that way so am starting to look for a real company to work for again.
When I am not hacking on my computer, I enjoy physical activity to return some circulation to my sore gluteus maximi and relieve my chronic carpal tunnel, like weight lifting, hiking, running, and mountain biking. I also enjoy sci-fi movies and reading books about theoretical physics, cosmology, and philosophy.
I have been playing strategy and RPG computer games for many years now. My recent Favorites have been MOO2, Civilization, Fallout 1&2, HOMM3, Alpha Centauri, Starcraft, Diablo, and Jagged Alliance 2. I have been earnestly waiting for MOO3 for years now and even bought the really disappointing BotF from Microprose, then I just found SEIV a couple of weeks ago, and found out that it is everything that MOO3 claims it will be, and more! I ordered the full Version after playing the demo for only a couple of hours. I'm really surprised it hasn't gotten more attention. I know I'm going to recommend it to all the strategy gamers I know.
I think it is very telling that the majority of the posters here are either old-school computer geeks or in the military. That is a perfect indication of just how great a strategy game SEIV is.

Re: OT: How old are you ?
I don't know. Should you?
If you do should I laugh?

Re: OT: How old are you ?
We have no gender. We removed it as an inferior method of reproduction several thousand years ago. We clone ourselves. No overpopulation produce as needed.

Re: OT: How old are you ?
Okay, that is no problem, I can handle that too. See the song "Afternoon delight"
Rubbing sticks and stones together makes the sparks ignite and the thought of rubbing you is getting so excited skyrockets in flight afternoon delight!

Perhaps a rather strange day to edit posts, but.....
Btw, 14 going on 15. I know, I'm too young to post here.
For the sake of your (or at least Ashton's) mental well-being, add 10 years to my current age.

Re: OT: How old are you ?
My age is the molecular weight of sodium hydroxide minus the spin multiplicity of hexaamminecobalt(III) ion (low-spin, strong field => diamagnetic complex) times the number of "common" amino acids. To this add the number of alfa and beta chains in Hemoglobin plus the number of phosphate goups in ATP.
How hard can it be?

Re: OT: How old are you ?
I'm old enough to touch the ground, and young enough to avoid it when necessary. (If you can figure out what this means then you are far wiser than I.)
Cheers!
