After retirement from aerospace to Central Florida, Gary became a volunteer teacher for the Seniors Now Computer Learning Center of Orlando. He is their current teacher for a very popular four- week course on eBay Buying and Selling Techniques. Gary, by degree, is an Electrical Engineer but he became a computer programmer in 1964 when he was asked by his employer, the largest aerospace firm on Long Island, to learn Fortran and write software applications for other engineers. During his 35 years in aerospace, he authored several Symposium papers and presented these papers for peer review at Universities and Technical conventions.
