As an early day "hacker" in college,  me and a few buddies took a card and 
punched every hole out,   then reproduced that card till we had a few 
decks,  then put one deck in the keypunch machine to reproduce,  another 
deck in each sorting machine and each printer in the room.   Started them 
all and boy did that make some sounds as those machines danced around the 
room.  The computer science professor soon arrived to stop the stress test 
of the machines.  ;-)

It took my first time dropping a deck to learn to do that.
I didn't have to be told twice. (8-{]}
