I built a file maker database, for a school system.
They have tried to retire it twice. Both projects failed miserably.
For the last 10 years it has been maintained by the same office admin. She still calls me every now and again to ask questions.
I wrote the Oracle driver for the AOLserver web server in 1997. Last year I met a guy who worked at Zipcar who said they were still using it.
All of the code I wrote earlier has long since been abandoned, I hope. There is the CBT application I worked on for BP that was for safety training operations for oil extraction in the Gulf of Mexico; and I -really- hope that it's no longer in use.
At the time, JASS (Blizzard's scripting syntax) was largely procedural, so this was some brute-force work that was a real bear to make usable across different mods.

I feel like I have stockholm syndrome after using Notes from several years. I hated notes, but I really miss the 'Copy to New' function from creating new emails from already sent items. Anyone know of a client that supports this other than Notes? (sorry for the hijack)
Late 70's. I wrote the operating system for the Control Pak EM system sold as the Barber Colman Network Supervisor building automation system. Thousands of systems were installed and many are still in use. By cracky. Er, what was the question again? http://www.controlpak.com/network.htm
p.s. I was a 10 years old boy. (:
