This report was on the French TV network “Radio-Canada”, (French only), and is a short documentary about living with Asperger's Syndrome. Even if you do not understand, you can see my waist length hair, back then (Old age made it about 4 inches shorter now), and it was dark. The video is good quality for a VHS transfer. You will see old computers, and my PDA (A Psion Series 5mx), and an HP48 calculator (The best made by HP along with the HP48g series.
Hi George’s,
Thank you for posting this, and I had no idea that you had achieved waist length hair in the past. That’s always been my goal, but despite having decent thickness for my age, of 72, I’m a few inches short of waist length.
I should mention that a lot of YouTube videos, if actually watched directly on YouTube, have a closed captioning option, and from there, you can tell YouTube to automatically translate into English. I do that quite often when watching foreign language videos. However, not all videos enable captioning, so it doesn’t work for all of them. I need to check out your video on YouTube to see if it’s possible for yours.

Hi Georges,
The Québec accent always makes me think Céline Dion when she speaks French. But you don't have a strong accent like the journalist, your accent is barely noticeable.
When I saw these old computers, it instantly reminds me this sound:
It was the time of slow Internet and, because I live in the countryside, we have to wait years before having the latest Internet acces technologies. Now, I have Internet with 8Gb/s symmetrical optic fiber, very useful when you have home servers.
Hi Jesus,
Ha ha, that sound is certainly a blast from the past as I certainly remember those old dial up days.Nowadays its way better as a few years ago I was finally able to ditch my DSL line and upgrade to Starlink and never looked back. Now I don't run servers but Starlink has been a major blessing.Thanks for sharing that “Back To The Future” moment.Cheers.
