A decade ago... at #oggcamp in Liverpool, for some reason I had a photo taken holding a DEC VT-101, like you do.

But I'm used to pics of you a decade later. I think 40 to 50 is the most dramatic change in most people.

Man, SO true.

I thought 20-30 was a big deal, then 30-40 wasn't as big a deal. Now that I'm rounding the bend to 50, it's a BIG deal.

I changed very little from 20-30, a good bit more from 30-40, but now I'm almost a completely different person than I was at 40.
