   Since nobody asked about my mention of nuclear weapons. . . . Though born before nuclear weapons, I was a Nuclear Weapons Assemblyman MOS 436.1. Among other tasks, I removed, inspected, tested, and re-installed all 92 detonators on a Mk7 warhead. I also worked on the 280mm Atomic Cannon Shell. Both those weapons were already obsolete and were being removed from the inventory, so I spent most of my time working on their more modern replacements. Heady stuff for an 18-year-old.

   I remember the first ballpoint pens: drippy, smudgy, skippy things. But they were NEW, and MODERN!!! I wanted one so badly! (I learned cursive with a dip pen with an inkwell.)

   Not only was I born before 1945, I used to support a computer at the Moore School of Electrical Engineering at UPenn. I met a professor there who helped wire the ENIAC as a grad student. And I once met John W. Mauchly, ENIAC’s co-inventor and co-founder of the company I retired from. So tell me something I don’t know.

   (I’m also older than nuclear weapons, but that’s a different story.)

    As great as the revived “Battlestar Galactica” was, it did break my heart that the classic old Cylons were not part of it.
