yeah i was the first guy in my high school with a calculator...
A bit before my time -- I was the first dork probably w/ a calculator
watch lol - and probably the first with a fancy "scientific calculator" -- and at the time we were using cassette tape rather than floppies with the Apple ][ (my first home computer was a //e). But still in high school we did work on the local college main frame.
Eliza was my first therapist (before I eventually became one)! lol
Anyway, sorry I can't help w/ your specific problem - I just tend to get a bit conversational sometimes. lol I hope things work out for you! But for now, Merry Holidays (whichever you observe)!
