I'm most grateful to y'all for having arranged this event for my birthday.... I wrote a program in assembler while in college in 1980 to collect and print a bunch of somewhat ephemeral information from the University's Cyber 74 that it was running on (not too different from neofetch today).  That program has not been rebuilt since.   The system knew only one time; it had no concept of time zones or UTC, so it was always set to local time.  Today I live in PST. 1 INFO ABS 2345 2252 80/11/02. 13.21.28.
