What are variables and how (and why) should I use them?

I got home last night, and the cat insisted he had not been fed all day, and was STARVING. I hadn't been there all day, so I didn't know, and my wife was off to her quilting party, so I couldn't ask...

I didn't use HyperCard to control a VideoDisc Player, but I DID use MacroMind Director 2.0 on a Mac IIfx controlling an ARTI frame-controller to lay 2D and 3D animations onto 3/4" tape, one frame at a time. Fabulous use of many a weekend. 😑 I got REALLY GOOD with the Lingo scripting language.

I know of at least 2 people who used Macromedia Authorware to develop and deliver computer-controlled courses with the content stored on VideoDisc. When one of them retired her organization's last course, she presented me with one of their obsolete VideoDiscs 😀
