I'm sure SI has some fine programers but it seems like they have ran into some problems that have them stumped. A fresh outlook might help solve the problems. I am in no way saying they should get rid of their programers but the ones they have seem to be stumped so SI should get them some help.

I attended Mata Computer college (Colunbus, Ohio)for 4 months in 1969. I learned to program in Fortran, Basic Machine Language, Cobol and another language that I can't remember the name of now. I am also trained on the 029 key punch machine and I was very good at putting all of those wires into that board that programs a collator. We went on a field trip to OSU one time and one of my programs ran on an IBM 360 which is the biggest computer in the world. I am available for a short time right now so if anyone at SI wants me to come out help get the new site working just give me a call.

Sometimes when my computer makes a funny buzzing sound I just smack it and it quits. I have picked up many other tricks like that over the years but I can't reveal all of them now or everyone else would be as smart as I am.
