Databases
BIC - BIC Database Database, written in BASIC, designed for organizational membership contact information, used for generating mailing labels, membership directories, etc. The original version of BIC had been written by Carl Chatzky, an eccentric radical visionary genius who had gained a freedom from conformity to any norml conventions of schedule and time through having written the software for the Maryland State Lotttery. Carl Chatzky was the co-founder, with Robert Pollard, of the Baltimore Information Cooperative - BIC - after which the database was named. BIC Database was progressively revised by Pollard with a modular structure that allowed, inter alia, the easy maintenance of multiple sort order indexes for a database. BIC Database was made freely available to organizations that participated in the Information Co-op.	Baltimore, MD 1980.10
