My first and last college programming course was Fortran IV in 1969, but I took it while earning a BS degree in chemistry and went on to get an MS in analytical chemistry. I too punched cards! What turned me into a Perl maniac though was when my Oracle mentor gave me a tiny script and then stepped back and watched. Within a year I was running servers with Perl scripts.
