I was there for the only double header I ever attended. We didn't have much money and had a real old car. It must have cost my dad a bundle, taking four boys. We had some sandwiches but needed hotdogs too!
When I was about 8-10 my brother-in-law used to take my brother and me to see a Phillies double-header, usually against the Dodgers but once against the Cards when I saw Stan Musial hit one to left center field. I hated the Phillies and the Dodgers and couldn't sit thru a double header....and it seems we always got seats behind a girder.....was a long day for me.... I wanted to see a Yankee game.

Intel/Micron: 3-D NAND, Taper And The IMFT Cost Advantage
Yeah, that would definitely be in my field were I still working.....I spent my career building structures like that only much less complicated than they are now.... I was the primary MOS process engineer in Research and personally processed IBM's first (the hot processing, not the litho) MOS devices... The sidewall process you see in those NAND devices was invented and developed by a team of 5 of us in Fishkill......My guy and I did the processing and a design manager and his guy did the design work....our two engineers got the patent which has made a helluva lot of money for IBM......We all got awards but nothing compared to the amount that the company got.
While I was in Yorktown Intel started up and announced the first Si-gate transistors as part of a 256 bit DRAM...
I recognized how good that technology was and bought Intel stock in the early 70's for equivalent price today of about 0.40/share....did well..... Thanks for that NAND link, I started reading the whole series.....man, they've come a long way.... The stuff I worked on in those early days used at most 7-8 mask levels......today it's at least 65-80 mask levels....
