Nearly Lost in the Gulag Archipelago in 2014 by James Pate Williams, Jr., BA, BS, MSwE, PhD

I term the forensic Georgia Regional State Mental Hospital System as the Gulag Archipelago of the first Order. As a refresher see and read The Gulag Archipelago: An Experiment in Literary Investigation by Aleksandr Isayevich Solzhenitsyn who won Nobel Prize in Literature for the previously mentioned tome in 1970. I have this beautiful book of survival in hellish conditions in my little library of at least 200 books or so. I remember my sisters pretty much forgot about me when I was placed on their order in West Central Georgia Regional Hospital in mid-October 2013. I don’t think either of my sisters bothered to visit me until I was free from the hospital by my usual Pathways Center Outpatient Mental Health Clinic savior worker John Leuken (spelling?) on St. Valentine’s Day 2014. I was then installed in my current abode of 201 North Lewis Street Apartment #6, LaGrange, Georgia 30240. My sisters arranged for me to sign over my rights against my better judgement to the property at 601 Hill Street LaGrange, Georgia 30241 where I had resided essentially since 1960 or 1961. Anyway, in October 2013 my sisters had run off my virtual wife Cyndi(a) Darlene Burks-Burden, a married drug addict former prostitute, whom I loved despite all our faults back in the day and in later periods of my life. I also lost my former puppy and dog Mister Buddy Princeton and AKC registered Chinese Willoughby pug. Cyndi(a) gave away our beloved pug due to her dire practically homeless circumstances. Back to the main gist of this email and/or post. A nice black registered nurse in Columbus bought me some winter clothes including a Wall’s hooded jacket at a secondhand store as a parting gift to me. I still am wearing the jacket today.

My whole legal name is James Pate Williams, Jr. I was born in LaGrange, Georgia approximately 70 years ago. I barely graduated from LaGrange High School with low marks in June 1971. Later in June 1979, I graduated from LaGrange College with a Bachelor of Arts in Chemistry with a little over a 3 out 4 Grade Point Average (GPA). In the Spring Quarter of 1978, I taught myself how to program a Texas Instruments desktop programmable calculator and in the Summer Quarter of 1978 I taught myself Dayton BASIC (Beginner's All-purpose Symbolic Instruction Code) on LaGrange College's Data General Eclipse minicomputer. I took courses in BASIC in the Fall Quarter of 1978 and FORTRAN IV (Formula Translator IV) in the Winter Quarter of 1979. Professor Kenneth Cooper, a genius poly-scientist taught me a course in the Intel 8085 microprocessor architecture and assembly and machine language. We would hand assemble our programs and insert the resulting machine code into our crude wooden box computer which was designed and built by Professor Cooper. From 1990 to 1994 I earned a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science from LaGrange College. I had a 4 out of 4 GPA in the period 1990 to 1994. I took courses in C, COBOL, and Pascal during my BS work. After graduating from LaGrange College a second time in May 1994, I taught myself C++. In December 1995, I started using the Internet and taught myself client-server programming. I created a website in 1997 which had C and C# implementations of algorithms from the "Handbook of Applied Cryptography" by Alfred J. Menezes, et. al., and some other cryptography and number theory textbooks and treatises.
