Colton
- Colton is an unincorporated rural community in Clackamas County, Oregon, situated roughly 26 miles southeast of Gladstone and Portland.
- I lived in Colton during my high school years from tenth to twelfth grade, graduating with the Colton High School Class of 1978.
- Because telephone calls to my childhood friends in Gladstone were subject to high long-distance toll rates, I utilized Colton High School's leased-line data terminal to program an early real-time chat and email system on our shared HP 2000 host to stay in touch. See Inventing Chat and Email Across a Leased Line in High School and Gladstone and Colton School Days.
