Tom Keenan learned to program in FORTRAN and assembly language in the 1960s at a secure computer facility in New York City, presumably to help America fight the post-Sputnik Russian menace. Instead, he was often seen around the early 2600 meetings and also playing with pay telephones. He went on to a respectable career as a computer science professor and technology journalist in Canada. He has interviewed interesting people from John Draper (Cap'n Crunch) to Arthur C. Clarke to FBI, NSA and State Department officials. In addition, he co-wrote the award-winning CBC Radio series Crimes of Future. He also helped design Canada's first computer crime laws and is a fellow of several prestigious societies. Currently professor of environmental design at the University of Calgary, he is the author of the new book: Technocreep. (I have a much more dignified biography that speaks of honors and awards and 35 plus years of teaching and research and publications as well as four degrees from Columbia University.
