Most of my [[top|wearables]] pages are about the changes and modifications I have made over the years.  I noticed that it gives the impression I am constantly changing things. On this page you can see just how long particular rigs were or have been in use.((While from 1976 on I used and made a variety of body worn electronic devices, they were not computers until 1986 and so are not listed here))
