35 here.  I got into computers by hacking RSTS/E systems at Tempe High
School, when taking a summer school course in programming.  The computer
lab had a row of DECwriter II terminals hooked up by acoustic 300 baud
modems to a PDP 11/70 at Arizona State University.  

I went on to audit a class at ASU when I was 13, mainly so I could do
some more hacking.  Solved dungeon, got ejected from lab at ASU for
hacking accounts.  

I'd write more boring stuff about my expolts as a spoiled kid, but I
have to go sort out my spoiled kids... they need dinner and new bed
sheets.  Ironic, eh..

Take Care,

Mark
