I'm 56.4166666... or thereabouts.

I first programmed in high school in FORTRAN on an IBM
1620 and shortly thereafter in Autocoder on a 1401,
around 1965-66.  I still remmeber reading in a column
in Popular Science that "scientists predict that in
the future computers would be the size of shoe
boxes..."  Since I was a teenager and was already an
expert on computers (and most everything else), I
laughed at this silly idea... until 10 years later.
