I read one of his columns about Flip flops in the third grade, so I grabbed all the switches, lights, wires and batteries in my third grade class room, I got two relays, and I was off to the races. I showed my teacher that was how a computer memory worked... and she said "That is not what they are for." Not disappointed, two years later I got the RS Electronics project kit, and raced through all the projects, and worked through the Books, with a few extra parts. Some how, my dad (MsEE) always had a few extra parts I needed. I soon had a bad attitude about being able to fix anything electronic. On to Programming. Three decades later someone walked into the computer group fix-it clinic, and asked to plug in a 'Micro-Tops' ok... what is it? It was made by Forest Mimms III? omg... I have known that name since I was a child. I hooked him up, gave him my copies of my books, and had them autographed. He may be a climate change denier, but he allowed principal measurements of the ozone hole, and provided irrefutable proof of Dr Drew Schdell, of NASA Goddard, theories on the ozone hole. Kind of a bummer when you do that. Oh, and just by the way...https://archive.org/search?query=Forrest+M+Mims https://archive.org/search?query=Forrest+M+Mims
