If not for the BASIC examples in the old 3-2-1 contact kids magazines that I discovered worked on my elementary schools Apple II computers and then later QBASIC, I have no idea what I would be doing in life.

That was my gateway to a greater interest in computers and an eventual job in IT. And. I will always respect BASIC for it.
