Since we're drifting: My dad had many friends in Prague, because he studied 
there in 1947 (and was there when the Communists took over, though he was 
across town). He visited there as often as he could, and at one point in the 
80s got a tour of a data centre. Technology there included paper tape machines, 
only they couldn't get paper tape--so they were using used movie film from the 
Russian movie industry. Pretty weird!
