APL became second nature ever since I first started using it in 1969. Two years later, I joined STSC just so I could devote more time to studying and contributing to the language. I've never stopped thinking about APL even when I left the field to start my own company where I would model tricky algorithms in APL before translating them into Intel assembler. As you can see from my APL Projects page, my interests tend towards system-level, and at times, obscure and useless areas.

In the early 1980s I designed and implemented NARS (Nested Arrays Research System) which turned into the first commercially available implementation of nested arrays. A quarter of a century later, I designed and implemented NARS2000, as an Open Source, Experimental APL Interpreter.
