IBM 402, does that count?  Lots of broken type bars but didn't note at the 
time how they were driven up and down.  That was I've Been Moved's job and 
I was up to my ass in alligators in the middle of the desert trying to keep 
a market 205 (out of 206 at the time) ma & pa tv station on the air.

Cheers, Gene

It is easier to get forgiveness than permission.
A pen in the hand of this president is far more
dangerous than 200 million guns in the hands of
         law-abiding citizens.
