About the Book

I Started college in 1964 when computers were in their infancy. As the first class of Boomers to start college I jumped into computers and rode them my whole career on a technological leap in history. One of my first courses was computer programming in Fortran IV. In the beginning, knowing how to use a computer was virtually synonymous with knowing how to program one. Later Iowa State University received one of the first IBM 360 computers and I completed my statistics course using punch cards. In my first job at Alcoa I met my first wife where she would type my letters and enter errorless data onto punch tapes for data transmission to our time-sharing computers at headquarters in Pittsburg. As my career progressed at Johnson & Johnson, computers were necessary tools to my success as a manager. I utilized PERT (program and evaluation review technique) to introduce new national products and production facilities. My first success was OB tampons. My Texas success was key to my transfer and promotion to I.E. manager at the Personal Products Division in Wilmington Ill. We were tasked with a national introduction in only 90 days. That product was Care Free Panty shields. Next I learned BASIC language, invented by John G. Kemeny and Thomas E. Kurtz of Dartmouth College. The two math professors deeply believed that computer literacy would be essential and designed the language. Its name stood for "Beginner's All-Purpose Symbolic Instruction Code". I utilized BASIC programming language to simulate our Division's business models. The business models created quarterly what-if budget models. Those software models were transitioned into a real-time hour-by-hour production floor network of computers. Ten years after my BS degree I was moved for my sixth city transfer to Silicon Valley in San Jose, California, the home of technology, to continue my third career at Gould Biomation. First we implemented IBM's COPICS MRP to manage our dynamic new product development. Gould Biomation introduced the first digital logic analyzer bi-passing Techtronic's and surprising Hewlett Packard. We became the most profitable division of Gould Inc. and I was promoted to Director of Manufacturing at age 38. In 1979, John moved to California to become the manufacturing and engineering manager for Gould Biomation. In 1982, he was promoted to director of manufacturing. Over the next twenty years, John continued managing manufacturing for multiple Silicon Valley start-up companies. After retiring from engineering, John volunteered his time at Independence High School, which offered its students courses in aircraft construction. He was soon hired as a math teacher for the East Side Union High School and Campbell Union High School Districts, where he taught all levels of high school math for the next eleven years. Engineer, entrepreneur, raconteur, and high school teacher, John has led a full and rich life. But the one part of life that he holds close to his heart is flying as a hobby. John is the founder of Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA) Ultralight Chapter 110 Inc., and is a past president of Flying Aces, Inc. He has regularly flown to Oshkosh, WI for the national EAA week. John has lived in San Jose5 CA for the past 37 years, and is married to Valerie Schaefer, his much-loved and valued partner.
