I learned programming in FORTRAN on the IBM 1620 at IIT Kharagpur in 1975. Enjoyed reading your posts about the IBM 1620.
Best regards

Sir!The other day I was also moved by this message that was passed on to me:...Yesterday BR visited us and gave a seminar in the department. I don't know if you remember him. He was a 2003 Integrated MSc. pass out...He was remembering you very fondly and said something like this: "The tensor calculus taught by GPS twelve years ago is currently of immense help for my theoretical calculations."
