Who was mother Fletcher...been called a MF'er before, not sure if this
is the same context. :-)

BTW, my first computer was a VIC 20, 16K of ram and only a tape
drive...or I should say cassette. Took me 12 years to get to the big
iron.

The 360/20's best language was RPG.  Fist real computer I ever saw, with
a 2415, a 1403 of some kind I believe, and the MFCM, where the last 2
characters stood for card muncher. Use your imagination for the first
two characters. :-)

My dad worked on it and before that, the requisite card machines.

We called ours "Mother Fletcher's Card Mulcher"  :-)
