Ed,
Let me go fetch a grain of salt.
And you want me to believe that in 1970 there was OS/360 running with ESCON
connected to 3330 DASD drives deep under the White House.
And that IBM lab was the one with the Electron Microscope.
I'm sort of amazed that in 1974 IBM could reconstruct overwritten DASD
tracks from the White house, but they could not recover 18 minutes of audio
tape!!! Perhaps they should have sent those to IBM as well.
I honestly believe your friend was pulling your leg (to put it nicely).

Ron, I tend to agree with that viewpoint.
Consider this: most of the heads that got rolled over Watergate had
pretty much been settled by August of 1974, when Nixon resigned.
I have to admit that I turned purple with anger when Mr. Ford pardonned
Mr. Nixon. But I calmed down when I heard the reasoning that Mr. Ford
presented in justification.
