Eric Shackle - better late than never
posted by John Davies at 9:24 AM
Like most of his generation, he says, Eric Shackle used to regard the Internet as a fearsome monster rapidly devouring the world we knew. Then at the age of 79, he bought his first computer, studied The i-Mac for Dummies, and "began a new life".
"Captivated by the magic of the World Wide Web, I began writing freelance articles about my discoveries. Some of them have been published by the New York Times, the Globe and Mail (Toronto, Canada), the Straits Times (Singapore) and the Sydney Morning Herald (Australia) plus other newspapers and magazines around the world."
Anyway today he's published a piece on me... gleanings from a couple of my blogs. I'm honoured. You'll find it here.
