hello:
My name is Ty; I heard about this list a while back, but hadn't joined it.

I got interested in cs when I was about 12--I had an old Braille Lite 
40, which was the replacement for my brailler back then. I picked up a 
manual on basic from Dan Zingaro and pretty much got hooked on 
programming from that point. About 24 hours later with lots of soda and 
no sleep, I had a working two-player tic-tac-toe game.

 From there I've progressed to learning a few other languages; my 
strongest being c++ and Python. After my first tic-tac-toe game, I tend 
too spend a lot of time hacking on code. My current projects on the 
workbench are a toy operating system I started to learn from, a mud 
(based on an engine I started from scratch), and a multi-player 
real-time stratagy space based game, as well as some other minor stuff.

I recently transferred from Colorado where I was going to a smaller 
school with less opportunities for classes that were around my level to 
Boston, Massachusetts, where I will be going to Wentworth in the fall.

not reason is a bigot; he that cannot reason is a fool; he that dares 
not reason is a slave.
