[NJARC] more FORTRAN

[Robert Flory]

Maybe RPI was a bit backwards in 1980 when I was punching cards.

The year before in high school I was writing OSCAR satellite tracking
programs on a TRS-80  (Trash 80) in BASIC. From the time I left RPI to the
time that I graduated from Stockton, the little computer work I did was
also BASIC, for logging radio telescope data.

In 1985 was back onto FORTRAN again, but on a 286 machine(I think), doing
the number crunching that it did so well, trying to fit photovoltaic panel
data into a mathematical model.

Now the computer is just a word processor, archive,  and communications
apparatus.
