I'm trying to wiggle my weekend into something resembling free-time, so 
that I can attend Sundays meeting.
Although I've read the intro posted on the web 
(http://hackadelphia.org/), I can find no other information about the 
group.  It just sounds neat, so I'm in  :)

So I figured I'd introduce my self ... my name is David.
I originally started programming on my Dad's Heathkit Microprocessor 
Trainer, with the 6800 processor.
I graduated to an old PDP8e, in High School.
Went into the Navy, to maintain the Mk-15 Phalanx (block 0, the original 
analog one).
Graduated from College with a degree in Electrical Engineering.
Went to work at Accusort (totally skipping the EE degree and going back 
to software).
In the mid-90's I got caught up in Linux, I believe it was Redhat 3.0.3 
but my memory is bad.
Got my Amateur Radio License (W0SNJ).
Quit Accusort and started my own company (Element-ID), manufacturing 
RFID equipment.

In the last 4 years I haven't done my hacking, but I'm anxious to get 
back into it.
I'm in the preliminary steps of designing a Contest Logger with support 
for dual soundcards under pulseaudio.

I hope to see you all this Sunday.
