James's Story
At PS-34: I was the kid that brought in a computer and demonstrated the things that can be done with it. Later on I got in the paper along with Yaron and E-Bai for writing a computer program with them. Some names I remember:
Joshua
Rian Natadingingrat(sp?)
Dr. Paul Ringel
Yaron Maman
E-Bai Koo
Kept mostly a low profile at JHS-60 while working for a couple of drug fronts by keeping their arcade games, pinball machines and (illegal) slot machines running for spare cash. Started collecting arcade games back then.
At Chelsea VHS I was the resident geek in the Computer Electronics curriculum, but remained mostly out of sight. Had a few crushes (*cough* Stephanie, Yvette *cough* :) and met some life-long friends that I remain in contact with today.
Was helped out by Joseph V. Coraddo when I was having "behavioral Issues" in class -- he is the primary reason I stayed in school. Transferred out of Chelsea to City-As-School to start internships in the "real world". Interned at a software company called Information Builders (working in I.T.), the American Field Service (programming/I.T.) and at Lexington School for the Deaf (teacher's assistant). Gained an increased interest in ASL and Deaf culture, as well as increased ASL/PSE/SEE signing skills. Also made some additional...Expand for more

John Eisely
Mary-Lynn Ingvorstad(sp?)

Johnny D. Innocent

Meredith M. Lobb (ended up meeting a common friend in College)
Went to college for 2.75 years. I worked for both of my colleges as a programmer, and in my third year realized that I was wasting valuable time so I left and started working for Prodigy in the games/chat areas and have never looked back.
I currently work in the financial/brokerage industries and dabble in online gaming (gaming, not games) helping out "the other side of the family" start and manage an online casino.
So! Currently I am married, successful, and living in New Hampshire. Got two kids that I love more than life.
