I was that kid of 13 or so. :-)
Well, I never got any publicity over it, but similarly I was 13 and
teaching myself BASIC on UDel's HP3000 and then later the PDP-11/70
run by Project DELTA. I was in 8th grade (middle school) at the time
and everyone seemed rather impressed, but it just seemed like another
intellectual pursuit to me. I also used PLATO (the educational
software was fun at that age), did a teensy eensy bit of Tutor
programming, and got my EE undergrad degree there as well.
