I'll mention both versions. Thanks.

I worked more with older things like on VAXs and then kept getting sidetracked away from programming by management into systems analysis and integration jobs (which were also better for promotions there) so I missed a lot of software development evolution including HTML. Then after I retired I was disgusted/burnt-out with the field and stayed away for ten years. Now the learning never stops. I'll probably die with some tutorial on a reader in my hand.
